For Amrita Devi, 34, her dream of opening a supermarket came true in May, last year.

Her supermarket ‘Amrita’s Supermarket and Liquorland’ in Lees Trading Complex in Laucala Beach, Suva, began its operations.

Mrs Devi said she was inspired to open her own supermarket after eight years of work experience as a cashier in the local supermarkets.

She said the journey to making her dream into a reality was an encouraging one and was a learning experience.

I love watching movies, going on vacations and driving.

 

How Many Places Have You Visited So Far In Fiji?
I have visited most of the tourist destinations in Viti Levu and Vanua Levu

 

What Is The One Spot You Would Take Every Visitor To, And Why?
Sheraton Fiji Resort in Denarau Island.

Their customer service is great, with a picturesque view.

 

What Is Your Favourite Secret Backyard Spot?
My Suva Park in Suva.

It is a great place to escape to after a busy day.

The serene sea and the cool breeze make it really peaceful.

 

What Is Your Favourite Place In Fiji For A Pie Or Coffee?
It would have to be Gloria Jean’s – whichever branch.

Their chai latte is a personal favorite!

 

What is the one Fiji spot on the top of your bucket list?
Turtle Island Resort.

I would like to go there as I have not really visited the outer islands.

I love beaches and the sea so I sure want to cross it off my bucket list.
