Loghman Sawari fled persecution in Iran to Australia at the age of 17 but was imprisoned on Manus even though he was a minor.
He tried to settle in PNG, but out of fear for his safety he fled to Fiji.
Now aged 21, Loghman Sawari said he had been in Fiji for a week and had been taken in by a family.
"I like Fiji people because they smile and they respect," said Mr Sawari.
"I don't know much about Fiji. I don't know what the government will be saying about me," he said.
