Summary
The author describes the transition from villlage life in the remote outer island of Moce to urban life in Suva, the capital city of Fiji. By passing on the traditions of Indigenous navigation and canoe-building, his family and community members ensure the perpetuation of traditional knowledge among Fiji's younger generations.
