Description
Bula,
My name is Elise and I'm 62 years old - I live in Pacific Harbour, Fiji and have a large family house with a big yard, 5 dogs, 4 cats and spend a lot of time with horses (mine and others) at a horse sanctuary nearby that a friend established a few years ago. My house is across the road from the main beach. I have two adult daughters and a grand-daughter. My older daughter and grand-daughter live with me but they also spend time elsewhere and my younger daughter lives in the US.

What else ...
Suva, the capital is an hour away by bus. There is good public transport and a few fun things like diving, river tubing and going to waterfalls in our area. We are easy to get to.
I work from home a lot of the time and like to live a generally quiet life.
