    It would probably seem like a rare combination of something like a survivor series or even Gilligan’s island. This place in fact is a social and environmental experiment which was made to resemble utopia. The actual effort that it took to transform Fiji into something that was sustainable was actually a community that was run quite democratically. In fact there are about one thousand, one hundred and fifty people from different tribes from about thirty five different countries. The actual aim of this was to give these vitual community a physical purpose. A plan was drawn to build a village on an island and at the same time , it was built online as well.
