@ernestquiocho: I’ve always been intrigued by those who go under the au and get their pe’a. I don’t fully understand it but I have a lot of respect for those who do it, because I know there’s a level of pain that you must endure. During my trip I had a lot of questions for my uso @tjioane_ about his pe’a, and instead of telling me he took me to STA to show me how they do it.. And then he went one more level and scheduled me an appointment 😭🤣. Well played uce 👊🏽. Faafetai tele lava to my tufuga su’a @paulsuluape for his amazing work. What I’m taking home with me I wear with pride. Where I was born and the language I was taught was out of my control, but as an adult I’ve been on the pursuit to fully embrace everything about being Samoan. Proud of who I am and where my roots come from. E matagofie le olaga I Samoa 🇼🇸. #samoa #samoan #polynesia #uso
A magnet for your fridge would’ve been nice too 😭😭😂

I have always wanted a traditional Samoan tattoo in honor of my friend who passed. She got hers in Samoa while getting clean. She was such a beautiful soul and I’d love to honor her in that way.

What’s the benefit of him squeezing your arm like that when soaking it in cold water? Genuinely curious
