Samoa is a beautiful place and is centered in the heart of the South
Pacific. With Sun all year round and a culture deep within its
traditions, Samoa is a wonder to behold. The culture and community are
one in the same. Without one there cannot be another. Like many
cultures, Samoa prides itself with their culture, traditions and beleifs
and shows it to the World with a smile. Once you are introduced, the
laughter that comes after will never cease. From the jokes to the food,
Samoa will fill you with much laughter and wonder.
A tradition that has many in wonder is our tribal tattoos. It is only
one way that we show our love for our culture. From the fale (house) to
the vasa (ocean), every design has its own representation. How it is all
put together is what can hold its meaning to the person. Although many
people now days can easily get one without having meaning, most Samoan
artists still stick to the traditional designs that represent God, love
and aiga (family) within the markings, making the tattoo unique for that
person and family.
