Iaorana, my name is Herehia and I am from Tahiti. I mostly grew up on Tahiti, but also on the islands of Taha'a and Mo'orea. After earning a BTS in Tahiti, I went to study Business in New Zealand, but during my year and a half there, my interests changed - and so did my goals. New Zealand's beautiful landscapes, its people, and their strong Maori culture had inspired me, and I returned home to my fenua with a totally different viewpoint.
I now have great desire to learn more about my culture, my islands, and my people. I am happy to be joining the Tetiaroa Society Team, looking forward to enriching my cultural and scientific knowledge, and sharing my newfound knowledge with others.
