Tatiana Motel Apia

... history is completely their own with no influence from either fx. the French (Tahiti) or Cook island (New Zealand). But one thing that has puzzled us a little is the atmosphere here. We read in the guide book and had loads of recommendations from fellow travellers, telling us how fantastic the Samoan people are. Warm and smiley, we were told. But we are a little confused.... The Samoan people we have met so far are smiling but it does not feel natural, it feels ...

... a machete (while drunk) to slash two other Samoans. That coupled with my friend, Julia having $500 tala ($300ish NZD) stolen from right next to her head all in the same night. So, did I want to hear about Monsieur Frenchman's problems? Hell no. The plane had a flat tire, they were trying to fix it, we are on a small island, **** happens and it's not their fault necessarily. In any case, there's nothing that can be done about it and you cannot travel to a ...

... sont relativement élevés, Fiji est très touristique avec du monde de partout 12 mois par an et puisque nous recherchions quelque chose de plutôt traditionel, nous avons donc décidé que ce serait Samoa. Vue d'avion, le premier apercu des iles est plutôt accueillant. Deux minuscules iles au milieu d'un océan qui s'étend à perte de vue avec des plages de sable blanc et des eaux turquoises. Après ce dur hiver à Wellington, on recherchait un endroit ensoleillé et ...

Hi everyone! Sorry you haven't heard from me in while! Been a bit busy... Well, we visited Lalomanu, south-eastern Upolu, a couple of weekends ago and that was great! We got on the bus for Lalomanu Saturday morning in Apia and prepared ourselves for the two hour ride around, almost, half the island. Always an adventure, and after two hours on a wooden bench you can be sure to have a, well, sore behind to put it mildly. We went down ...

... oma elu-oluga üsna rahul olevat. Märkimisväärne on aga neljajalgsete sõprade rohkus siinsetel teedel. Kui Fijil oli üsna tavaline kohata teeäärtes hobuseid ja lehmi, siis Samoal on jälle ohtralt ühte teatud tõugu koeri ning naljakat kirjut tõugu seaperekondi. Viimased otsustasid tihti täiesti ootamatul hetkel teele tormata ja meie autojuhid nägid kurja vaeva, et mitte mõnest üle sõita. Sigadele ja koertele vahepalaks kepsutas ka nii mõnigi kana ringi. Oli omamoodi ...

... soon as I possibly can! Especially ones of the view from our fale. The beach we stayed at was called Faofao Beach, and the fales were run by a local family. The family were lovely. We were well looked after and extremely well fed! It cost us 60 tala each for a night and for three meals a day - that's roughly 12 GBP. Several other visitors came and went while we were there, all of whom were really nice ...

... sharp. There was a certain amount of water in the boat, causing her to trim down by the stern and making it impossible to come up into the wind sufficiently to make it back to port. I determined to run across the wind instead, to the shelter of a nearby river. I was involved in this maneuver when it also occurred to me in passing that there was by then rather more water in the boat than could reasonably be accounted for ...

... driven for fishing in lagoons. For work outside the reef or for ocean travel where sailing canoes were once used one sees now only aluminum catamarans powered by outboard motors. The Samoan heritage people at the university tell me that there is no documentation of the technical details of the Samoan sailing canoe. They advised me to get a canoe and put any kind of a sail ...
