Samoan Language Week Task

WALA: Samoa and it's Culture.

Talofa Lava, as you all know it is Samoan Language Week. I am proud of my culture and strive to represent my country and the future. I am part Tongan and Samoan. In this task we were given questions to answer like; How far is Samoa from New Zealand? What are the names of it's two main islands, What is the capital of Samoa? , and how many people live in Samoa at the moment. 

My favourite questions to answer was "Who is a famous Samoan" and "Who is your favourite famous Samoan" I answered David Tua. Although he is a retired professional boxer, he is still well known for his brutal punching force, especially in his left hook. The reason why he is my favourite Samoan, is because he is a Humble winner. When he won his fights, he congratulated his opponent. 

Who is your favourite Samoan? and why?

Many thanks :) 

Samoa

Beautiful Samoa…

Samoa is a country in Oceania, it is set in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Living in Samoa is very different here in NZ. For instance, some houses in Samoa live with no doors or windows How do I know this? Well I asked my grandfather for knowledge on how living in Samoa is both good or bad? Samoa is where I originate from. My mother grew up in Samoa, but my grandfather had decided to shift my family over here to New Zealand. Finding a better education for his kids, including my uncles and aunts, he has learnt to speak English fluently. Growing up in the Islands my grandfather and my grandmother owned their own shop… Explaining why they cook such delicious food. Growing up I sometimes ask myself What if I grew up in the Islands?
