About Me
- SAMOAN BLOG
- Honolulu, SAVAII, United States
- Well... I have been really blessed by God. I have lived a life that is beyond my wildest dream. I have travelled the world, worked in the most exciting environment, worked in the entertainment field, media as a journalist and have met some of the most facinating Samoans worldwide and finally met and married the Love of my life, Fia. Sadly in October 2008, I lost my Wife Fia. She has meant everything and all things to me. Knowing and marrying her were the best things that ever happened to me. I have created this special blog to dedicate to her memory and her legacy. I know this section is about me, but without her, I am nothing. Depression and tears can not bring her back, but I will see her again soon. Having everything, homes, cars and a dog amounts to nothing without her. The pain and sorrow in my heart and soul everyday is unimaginable, but I hope God will grant me joy and happiness in the future. She will be forever in my heart. One of Fia's interest was to learn more about her Samoan language and culture, hence this Blog, Dedicated to my dear wife with all my Love. Alofaaga Mafana.
