About Me
Queen Salamasina was the first sovereign ruler of Samoa; she was the daughter of Vaeitoefaga and Tamalelagi. Through her mother she's the granddaughter from the king Tu'i Tonga of Tonga and through her father she's the descended from the High Chiefs of Samoa and Fiji. She was the first female to attain all of the four paramount royal titles and become the tafaifa or supreme monarch of Samoa. She reigned for nearly 10 decades of peace after many civil wars and disputes with neighbouring Tonga. It is believed she was the daughter of Nafanua, the goddess of War who predicted Christianity arriving in Samoa. Not much is known about her, but the recently deceased ruler of Samoa, His Royal Highness Malietoa Tanumafili II, is a direct descendant of this legendary queen.Hi, my name is Tima Tapumanaia. I love nature. I love exotic and beautiful things like sunsets, sunrises, orchids, wild flowers, ocean breezes, long walks in the mountains overlooking the city lights, polar bears, bright colors like turquoise, fuschia, purple, green, and driving long distances to clear my thoughts while enjoying the wind brush through my hair. I am very socialable. I speak my mind, and tell it as is. I am complimented by many for my smile. I am a strong minded woman who is not easily intimidated or influenced by others. The path I have taken in my life has built my character, and helps to define who I am today. No one can judge me unless they've walked and worn my shoes!!TUPUA TAMASESE (Chiefly Title)TITLE: Tupua Tamasese RELIGION:
