I met our podcast guest Pania Low-Bignell, through a mutual friend Tali Gagamoe. Tali knew his colleague & friend was coming home to Rarotonga for a holiday and referred Pania to me.
So during a local lunch consisting of fresh grated coconut, (Nita) Paw Paw (Papaya) and our drinking coconut young Nu my new friendship began with Pania.
Pania speaks about her family and connections originating from the small island of Atiu in the Cook Islands. She also shares precious family memory lane information about her grandmother and grandfathers love story dating back to the 1940's.
Pania chats about, how and what her engineering grandfather used to cut coconut trees in the 1950's, with the intent to build bridges, furniture and housing etc in the Cook Islands? The answer with a special blade named "Tungsten", Pania says.
Pania chats about "Pacific Fusion Festival". Its origin concept began from a compelling brown skinned struggling human story. To now which showcases local Polynesian Creative Arts talent in Whangarei, New Zealand. We then move our conversation onto another Polynesian initiative, named "Fale Pacifica Board".
Thank you Pania, I appreciate you.
