On March 12, 2023, I embarked on an incredible journey to Samoa from Christchurch with Fiji Air. Upon my arrival at the capital Apia airport, I was welcomed by friendly locals who exemplified the Samoan culture's warmth and kindness. I spent my days exploring the island's natural wonders, including a stunning waterfall and beautiful beach, where I swam in the clear waters and basked in the sun. Samoa's location in the South Pacific only added to its charm, making it a true paradise on earth. The people's hospitality and the island's beauty left a lasting impression on me, and I can't wait to return and experience more of Samoa's rich culture and stunning landscapes.
