Hi Marie,

I'm really happy of  to know you like my career, of how i'm become famous! But I'm prouded of to know that my origins are more important for you that all of this!

I will explain to you where i'm gone in new zealand...

Firsly, the glaciers.... they are really beautiful! in addition...erm...yeah let me think that Lake are amazing! If you are someone who like country and flat landscape... eventually,all of rural New zealand is magnifent ! But I prefer the town, like Queenstown or Auckland for shopping, I don't really like the "rural tourims".

About the rugby world cup,yeah ! It's more in my taste! I'm for USA! But i'm a supporter of New zealand too, it's my native country ... I suppose you are for France, so I wish that the best team win!

It was kind of you to write to me and maybe i'll keep in touch with you.

xoxo

A personal opinion?

set comment! ;)

There are totems too (and architecture'Maori)

The maori represent them gods, spirits and ancestors with a totem. This totems in wood, are carved by themself.

We can to watch that Maori use them talent to create and to make residences very amazing and so beautiful: it's impressive!!

They make the same thing for them tatoo:

The tatoo is of origine divin for Maori, the word "tatoo" comes of  Oceania, it's Captain James Cook who cames back in New Zealand with this word, tattooing was created by the sons (Mata mata arahu po and tu ra'i) of a god ( ta'aroa).

In the maori's culture, there is the "Haka".

The haka is a ritual dance of New Zealand. Maori interpreted this for  ceremonies and before to go in the war.

This dance has become famous thanks at new zealand team of rugby :the all blacks.

The players are dressed in black, and they do this dance before them matchs, to impress adversary. 

"Maori" is a word that we found in other Polynesian languages like "hawaiian" or the "Marquesas" (it's maoli), the "tahitian" (maohi) and Cook Islands (maori). They are all the same sense : this words distinguishe humans to gods and spirits. The first European visitors of New Zealand's islands, gave names for the people of this Islands like: Indian, aborigines, native or New Zealanders. Firstly, this people are designated under the term "Maori tangata", for eventually to keep "Maori".
