  • Malolelei everyone! After a month of being back from my vacation I finally made the time to get this vlog done.
    It was truly amazing being back home like it usually is. Enjoyed every bit of my vacation out in the sun either swimming or sipping on a few cocktails here and there. Lets not forget the Tongan food, from ota ika, umu and eating out at the local food spots in tonga, to which there are many great spots. It was a great trip.
    Hope you all enjoy this vlog and malo!

    this quarantine has me a bit down. But this video cheered me up. Ive always wanted to visit Tonga. I usually visit the Caribbean for weeks at a time and I see so many similarities in this video. Saw a massive breadfruit tree in your video. *DEEP SIGH* Once this lockdown is over I will arrange travel.

      I'm Tongan and I've ALWAYS wanted to visit the Carribean as I'm intrigued by your culture, history & food. I just found out that one of my ancestors is responsible for introducing breadfruit to the Carribean and now I feel like I really have to go 🙂

      Hi Marie, thanks so much. I enjoyed reading your comment and the description of all the food you listed takes me back down memory lane. Glad you enjoyed the vlog, I will try to show more of myself in future videos but still a little shy but will make the effort. Rarotonga is on my bucket list to visit so I do hope when Corona goes away I can get back to my travel plans 😊

      Just realized you're a Tongan from Canada. I'm going to take a wild guess. Are you Caroline? Kalisi's friend from Side School? She's the only Tongan I know of that resides in Canada lol haha like I said. wild guess!

      Hello, well after corona dies down you can find connecting flights from your country to Tonga. You can use a travel agency or simply book online. Its a beautiful place where you can escape from the busy lifestyle and enjoy island life. Hope that answered your question.
