Afraid of something permanent? 🤔

Don’t worry, we got you! In the Polynesian culture, marking the skin is a traditional way to show belonging and identity.

Therefore, in island villages like Fiji, they offer different “tattoos” as a different mark to identify someone’s calling or title such as a chief, warrior, princess, queen, and navigator.

Come check out these washable tattoos here at the Polynesian Cultural Center!

In this Fire Knife Chronicles episode with Havana, we’ll know why she committed in learning more about fire knife as much as she is discovering more of herself with confidence.
