| Sixth grade students at Tekatia School. 1995 |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| This is my house at Tekatia; I've never lived anyplace I've enjoyed more... To the left is my "bwia" where I ate, slept, washed dishes, chatted with friends. I seldom slept in my house. | |||||||||||||||||||||

| Tebwakea and Tia...she's chewing the slightly sweet outside of a young coconut; the pulp is then spit out. | |||||||||||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||||||||||
| Mycookhouse... kept separate from the other structures... just in case of fire. My two-burner kerosene stove, kettle for boiling drinking water, small rice pot, and a meager supply of spices and sauces. | |||||||||||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||||||||||
| "Te bwia"...this is where I slept, ate, relaxed, etc. A simple life with simple needs. A mosquito net hangs above my bed. | |||||||||||||||||||||
