Greetings from Australia. You are an amazing family travelling around the Pacific on a small boat. What a strong family. The Tongan family were great helping you guys out.
It's so sweet to show love and kindness from hina and her family, they might not have much but to make you and your family's feel welcome is so priceless. God bless you and your family and thanks for the great video. Stay safe out there.
Thank you for the beautiful video this is how the Tongan families are they open their homes to strangers from another country who knows how many times theyve been doing this,on a hot day they saw a family walking not knowing where they going turn get some shade to open their hearts full of kindness,hospitality is awesome.Malo to the Tongan family and their guest wishing them safe travels and many more friends along the way.Bula from Winnie/Texas.
I really enjoyed watching. Im from Neighbouring Samoa, I love visiting the Kingdom of Tonga, been there several times. I've only been Tongatapu, Makaha'a, Pangaimotu, Fafa and 'Eua in the south and Niuafo'ou and Niuatoputapu in the north, but I've never got the chance (more like time) to visit Vava'u, I'd love to go there someday. That family are so beautiful so loving and very hospitable, that's the beauty of Polynesian Cultures, where sharing is caring, treating complete strangers as family, and where smiles and kindness is free. Oh BTW next time you go to the Kingdom you have to experience the beautiful traditional Tongan Dancing, my two favourites being the "Mako" (men's action dance) and the "Tau'olunga" (ladies graceful dance), both have beautifully handcrafted costumes and accompanied by music with amazing unique Tongan Harmonies. I'm so proud you and your family are living the dream. Safe and Pleasant Travels always. As we say in Samoa, "Manuia le Malaga" its like Bon Voyage but with a more deeper meaning.
Bula Vinaka, this is so beautiful. Can so relate to this every Sunday having Lovo for lunch right after Lotu . Love island life and this makes me feel homesick 😊
Grew up in Vavau one of the most beautiful islands in Tonga. My favourite part was when you all wore the Tongan attire you all look so beautiful 😍 bless you all and ofaatu 🇹🇴
Aloha from Hawaii🥰 Thank you Morgana family for this amazing video. Hina send her love to your family. My family truly love this video it’s our motivation to always strive for the best. I was not at home when you visited but when I first watched it I know for sure that you enjoyed your time with my family and the Kingdom as well. Mau ofa lahi atu😍
Thank you for an amazing video of Tonga and your family.This videos gives a homesick feelings,the feeling! I am Tongan but reside in Australia now. I am proud of my culture but it hurts me to see that it is slowly evolving to be more commercialise.This video reminds me of the days that I grew up in Tonga.One time we had a tourist (male) from Germany,around 1977.He missed his ferry and look around for a place to stay,but at that time in Haapai there were any commercial accommodation then.My cousin invite him to catch a boat with him to my island,and so we stayed with him for a week and then my cousin sail back to catch his ferry.I am so grateful to see that these kind of hospitality still exists in my home land as life is not all about business but creating a friendship is far lasting in our hearts that money last in our hands.Thank SAILING FATA MORGANA for your video! And thank you to Hina and her families for the hospitality,that makes us proud to be Tongan
Thank you for your wonderful thoughts! We are glad that so many Tongans have seen our video and felt nostalgic for their beautiful homeland and charming way of life which is still largely unspoiled by the outside world in the small islands. We feel so grateful for Hina's hospitality and we now love and respect all Tongans everywhere in the world. One person, one family, can make a difference! Thank you all!
Nothing comes close to Tongan hospitality. No matter how little to none Tongans have, they will always serve you with the utmost best. Praying and blessings to Hina and her family in 10 x folds. I love the fact your mum learnt such an essential skill that the ladies in Tonga don't get enough credit for - weaving. Hands down such a humbling video to watch, You did an amazing job at this video. LOVE IT!!
Mira made a beautiful basket. That was such a wonderful gift for Maya. The Tongan Sunday church, meal preparation, and eating on the banana leaf table was so interesting. Such nice people.
I know Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow lost the password. I love any assistance you can offer me.
@Marco Ty Thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm in the hacking process atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
This is amazing hope they had good time in Tonga and what a beautiful Tonga family make them feel like home good to see some good people around the world!!
Wonderful episode. I enjoy seeing how friendly the people of Tonga are. It is great to see how quickly friends can be made with simple kindness and hospitality.
Its lovely to see you welcomed into the culture, I spent a month in Neifu awaiting a ride on a yacht sailing west, and loved every minute. Stayed at the Hilltop Motel. Met with the older yachties also. You showed the Tongan people so well.
Love this video. Remind me as kid when I grew up in Vava’u. The best part is the swimming every evening, getting the umu ready and going to church. Much love to Hina and your family for the lovely hospitality. Ofa atu
Well done guys! I'm following many similar channels, but there are not so many that I trully enjoy; yours is among a few of them! Greetings from Istanbul...
Thank you for sharing your video. I remember stopping by at Neiafu briefly when I was very young. Watching your footage brings back good memories. Very nicely done.
God Bless Hina and her genuine display of true Tongan hospitality, afterall they are known as the "friendly islands of Tonga". Absolutely love this vlog!
Hello Fata Morgana crew, even though I have sailing around the world twice now, I still really enjoy watching your video's. It is a pity my wife died in such an early age, she would have loved this way of life.At the moment I am in Mombasa and will leave for Pemba island soon. Fair winds to you and regards from the S/V Aotearoa 1
Yes I am a kiwi but I lived a long time in Holland, but when I'm old and grey I will end my sailing life in New Zealand, you can always ask me about any destination you want to go to. But remember I haven't seen it all yet.Take care
Looks like a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing. I’m Tonga but I left Tonga when I was young to USA. I have not been to any Island out side Tongatapu. I love your videos.

What a beautiful way to celebrate your 13th Birhday. You're so lucky you get to travel with your parents like this & to experience another culture & way of life . I am from Nuku'alofa Tonga. Sailing is the best way to travel because you get to learn about the ocean & horizons besides sunrise & sunsets not forgetting the beautiful night sky and day lights & the ocean who it is I miss home its been a while. Thank you for sharing your travelling experience 🥰💞
This video got me so homesick 😭 there’s no place like home. I can’t wait to visit Tonga again. God bless Hina and her family and safe travels to you guys. Thank you for the beautiful video ❤️
