Tasi is a farmer from the Aleipata region. He’s the SWAP team’s constant companion teaching tourists how to climb a coconut tree and then doing it himself when they fail to learn. (And they always fail!) He’s tried teaching them how to husk a coconut but he seems to fail at that teaching job too! No matter, he knows the south coast like the back of his hand and is great value laughing away all day telling us and showing us things we never knew. Our guests love him! We do too, but don’t tell him that in case he gets a big head. Tasi means "Number 1". We thought he was pointing in all the photos we took of him but in fact his ego was just getting in the way – big smile for the camera; one finger pointing at something; oh so he thinks he’s number one then eh, does he?
