Mālō nī!

Growing up in Taiwan my grandfather grew bananas on a small plot of land which I often visited with him. I think my current dislike of bananas is from eating too many at once as a child!!

I visited here in 1986 with the kiwi navy... I recall being overawed with the local history, also the naval history from World War 2. 60 Japanese warships scuttled ... a modern diving paradise... now part of the fabric of the island's rich pacific history, & it's great to see the work of www.digitalpasifik.org so accessible - ngā mihi nui/thank you, Andy #LoveYourWork

After my grandmother's death, I discovered a huge collection of flying fish carvings by Pitcairn Island artists. I got to learn more about her heritage and the Pitcairn Island tourism industry
