“TONGAN MEDICINE, SPIRITS AND ALL“
We have all heard of Witch Doctors, Medicine Men, and the lore of their strange methodology for healing, spirits and all. Have you ever wondered if any of what has been bandied about for centuries might be true?
"A Paradox In Paradise" ~ by Robert Bryce
Tonga is a wonderful mix of culture and humor. Humor prevails in Tonga. Like a theme park, Tonga has all the characters. Living here is challenging, elusive and most interesting. Orderly chaos might describe its internal functions.

Montreal—If I could be anywhere in the world right now, I would be in the Kingdom of Tonga in the South Pacific.
Granted, I would almost always prefer to be in the South Pacific — it's something about the postcard perfect palm trees and beaches, the complex yet welcoming cultures, and maybe, just maybe, the weather.
"Mirror, Mirror on the Wall"
Where is the fairest place of all?
And the mirror said; Tonga!
The ancient Kingdom of Tonga in the South Pacific? Not what you expected? You probably have never heard of it. But, before getting into why Tonga, maybe we should get into; why even move at all?

“Tsunami Proof,” And Rising; The Vava’u Island Group of Tonga - by Robert Bryce

Are We Sinking? - Notes From Tonga - by Robert Bryce
When the “unsinkable” Titanic sank, there were not enough Lifeboats.
The lesson learned back in 1912 was—more lifeboats—which became Maritime Law. The lesson evidently not learned was; the large and unsinkable can sink and they still are; evidence the true state of affairs in our homelands.

“Pick Me!” said the Kingdom of Tonga
Looking for a place to settle in the South Pacific that is a little storybook, with perfect weather, white sand beaches, uninhabited islands galore and a sense of humor? Try our Kingdom, right out of “Alice in Wonderland.” The Mad Hatter is alive and well here. Nothing is very serious, life is a cool breeze with a cold beer–or just plain soda.
