Eureka, a historic centre in the United States National Register of Historic Places, is the flourishing heritage centre of Eureka. Alternatively, walk through our indigenous redwords and still get home in good season for supper. The Humboldt Bay is the traveler' s goal in your world. Any option can be awesome for the visitor, so we recommend you start your itinerary with Tour Humboldt, an adventurous and lifelike journal that focuses on living around the bay.

If you want to go hiking, cycling or riding through our sequoiarees, you can select your own adventures. A picturesque ride through the Avenue of the Giants will give you a foretaste not only of our olive groves but also of our town.

Our culture trip begins when we encounter Christian, our leader. It is not because he is a Samoan manhood fantasy, with his black, rose-scented glow in the sun, a slanting scent of scent around his lean thighs, and rowan teeth on his muscular breast. It is the view of his Pe'a, a full bodied Tattoos, the mark of a joust.

It is our last samoa in Samoa, a capital of the polynese cultur. Whilst planes of the 21. cent. land in the proximity, we drive with Christians on the small isle, which was supplied only 16 years ago with current. Here there are sensuous dances at fia-fia (party) evenings next to religiousness, where young townspeople in larava-laves ( "sarongs") blow up Éminem from her 4WDs, and where Christians answer his cell phones while he praises them.

A few come to Samoa to enjoy the warm welcome of the islands and the stereotypical postcards of blue water and bright sand. I have come to immerse myself upside down in the lesser-known attractions of this 10-island archipelago: dipping, swim in caves, jump in falls, hike to volcano crater and avoid bubbles.

Instead, I find that the 3,000 years of Samoa cultural and historical heritage, which make it so unique as no other tourist resort in the tropics, seduce me unprecedented. It is only logical that we ask Christian for his tattoos as the ship travels through the water to Manono. In the 1830s, while the evangelists put an end to Kannibalism, they could not exterminate the conventional tattoos - 10 to 15 percent of the islanders carry the signs that they have changed from young to men.

Tattooing is a hurtful, one-month procedure. As he was overcome by the grief, he said that his passion for his mum, a head of the town, was helping him to go beyond his ordeal. He is now marked as a Samoan warrior, a man of war. It is a small glimpse into the complexity of Samoan civilization, a fixed hierarchic system with chieftains and community faithfulness, in which old tradition and traditional Christians come together to build the Samoan way.

No streets or hounds, only country lanes meandering through a small town blooming withua ( "frangipani") and an eagle eye ( "hibiscus"). That' s why we are here: sleeping in kestrels (traditional cabins with braided venetian blind for the walls), eating seafood boiled in coir milks, exploring and relaxing on the three sqkm. isle.

Upolu, the principal isle, is a place full of activity. Begin the 475-metre long walk to Mount Vaea, 15 min from Apia. A lot of pilgrims in honour of the Scots writer Robert Louis Stevenson, who is dead at the top in his adopted Samoa. Samoa's exploration of natural beauties may begin inside, but the Sapphire Coastline is like a magnetic attraction that attracts travelers like gemstone explorers.

Five meters away from my fountain for the best showers of all (a naturally salt one at 28 degrees), the tranquility is so extensive that it is hard to believe that this area was most affected by the 2009 turmoil. In order to get the excitement going, I take the one-hour boat to Savai'i, Samoa's biggest island, which has only a fourth of Samoa's 180,000 inhabitants.

It' a subtropical Tidy Town, and best of all, it's over. Savai'i - indeed, all of Samoa - is pushing the Deadline. Savai'i's west point is the last place in the whole wide globe where the tan sets in an extravagance of red and orange. "Tempted by the tropics and the moist atmosphere, it is hard to escape the islands age.

Turtle swimming in the hamlet of Satoalepai (these soft protohistoric animals are flying under water with fins instead of wings) and walking around Saleaula hamlet in lagoons before the journey to the spring of 1905-1911, the Mt. Matavanu craters. It is a three-hour walk from the town of Paia.

At first I was not excited to see the Taga Blowholes in the southern part of Savai'i, where vulcanic pipes of the volcano es have caved out through which the waters rush into huge Plume. Samoa's high points are not necessarily the breathtaking sandy shores and small towns, but the immaterial things, the wealth of Samoan civilization and the enthusiasm with which the Samoans accept their tradition.

In the morning at 6 o'clock, near the town of Safotu, I watch as Sunday is planned for the'onai (feast). In Samoa, traditions meet the modern in complete harmoniousness, where family-oriented cultures welcome the outsider with open arms and where a simple vacation becomes the gateway to another charming way of being.
