Hello pardon if I’m sounding off a bit ignorant (it’s because I probably am).. I think Samoan sleeve tattoos are awesomeee. I’m not Samoan, would it be disrespectful if I get one? (I didn’t want to just ask Google as I want to ask people that are actually in the culture) Thank you so much!
Hi, I have a few questions I'd like answered respectfully. I’ve been asking myself for like 10years now. My dad is from Hawaii. As a young child, he told me stories about how the islanders traveled and how they found Hawaii. He told me a lot about Hawaii. It’s history, along with the Samoan culture and history. Still, a lot of things confused me. He and my uncle spoke a whole different language when they would meet. Also, my grandma on my dad's side, God rest her soul, told me stories of her grandfather being a chieftain or being an elder, but what made me very curious about this was that she had Alzheimer’s, so I questioned it. Still, my dad would always tell me that he couldn't wait to see me get my tribal tattoos to my best of my knowledge I only remember two one was a chieftain tattoo and the other was a warrior tattoo. I would ask about my grandfather but my dad never wanted to talk about my uncle did tho just once he told that my granddad was abusive and that why my father change his last and so did he and my grandma so my grandfather would have no family no off spring so I know my dads Samoan but it’s like my left clueless about the culture and how to join if I can idk it’s just bc my dad and grandma made it seem heavily tribal but I was wondering in total when I do go to Hawaii were do I go to find the Samoan tribe ig and I have a last name is there a way I could offer that to the Samoan tribe so that my new family can be connected and am I old to get tribal tattoos and where do I go SORRY FOR THE LONG ESSAY IVE BEEN VERY CURIOUS OF THIS FOR SOME TIME

Hi everyone,
I’ve made a new app called Talanoa, built to help people learn Pasifika languages in a simple, Duolingo style way.
I’m still building and improving the Fijian section, and I’ll keep adding more content and features over time.
The app is free to download, and I’m keeping it free for the first month. After that, there’ll likely be a subscription option for extra features.
I’d really appreciate any downloads, feedback, or reviews. It would help a lot as I keep building this.

I’m considering moving to Samoa short term. I’d like to know if Samoa is LGBT friendly to live. I’m just a basic regular guy and not flamboyant, not that there is anything wrong with that. I just happen not to be.

Talofa Everyone!
I’m a student from Singapore and I enjoy collecting postcards. I would be very grateful to receive postcards from anywhere in Samoa. 🙂
If postcards aren’t available, I’d also really appreciate a greeting card, generic card, or even a small souvenir.
(like a keychain, rock, local snack, flag, ornament, cap, T-shirt, or handmade craft)
This is for my personal collection, and not for any commercial purpose.
If you’re willing to help, please leave a comment and I’ll share my mailing address with you.
Thank you so much in advance, and warm greetings from Singapore!

Talofa tagata uma!
O aʻu o se tamaititi aoga mai Sigapoa ma ou te fiafia e aoina pepa meli. Ou te matua fa'afetai lava i le mauaina o pepa meli mai so'o se mea i totonu o Samoa. 🙂
Afai e le maua ni kata meli, ou te matua talisapaia foi se kata faafeiloai, kata lautele, po o se tamai mea faamanatu.
(pei o se filifili ki, papa, meaai mama i le lotoifale, fu'a, mea teuteu, pulou, mitiafu, po'o se galuega taulima)
E mo la'u lava aoina, ae le mo so'o se faamoemoega faapisinisi.
Afai e te naunau e fesoasoani, faʻamolemole tuʻu se faʻamatalaga ma o le a ou faʻasoa atu laʻu tuatusi meli ia te oe.
Faafetai tele muamua, ma faafeiloaiga mafanafana mai Sigapoa!

I’m still learning to navigate Reddit and deleted my original post by mistake, but here’s an update on my hand printed beach towel ( I also did the tie dye myself). It’s incomplete but I’m forced to work slowly because of injuries I sustained during my naval service.
We'd love to visit Samoa soon with our kids (8 and 5), but our 5-year-old is quite fussy with food. Usually has bolognese, butter chicken, or chicken and rice for dinner.
What is food like in Samoa? Would it be hard for us to find places that serve Western food for our little one? The rest of us are happy to try local foods, but I really don't want a hungry, fussy child for the whole trip, either.
I'm wondering if someone can recommend a hotel that is good for 1 night in Apia? Arriving 110am from NAN and departing for HNL the following afternoon. Thank you!
