Which is your favorite Hotel you recommend others to stay/ hangout in French Polynesia?
I love the Hilton Resort Moorea, which is close enough from the main island but still provides that holiday feeling.

What is/are the best place(s) to relax among nature in French Polynesia?
There are so many! Out the top of my head I would say I love the "Vaima Source" (preferably in the week time to avoid the crowd), the Coco Beach Motu in Moorea is an amazing place too, and if you go wandering around the "Presqu'ile" in Tahiti, you'll come across a ton of other cool spots.

What are the best surf spots in Tahiti do you recommend?
I don't surf so I can't really recommend any, but the two most known beach waves spots are Taharuu et Papenoo. As for the reef spots you have Taapuna, Sapinus, Haapiti and so much more. Without forgetting Teahupoo, which is the most famous.

What beaches do you think are the most beautiful in French Polynesia?
The most beautiful beaches are in the islands distant from Tahiti like Fakarava, Rangiroa, Bora Bora. If ever you don't have the budget to go that far, Temae beach in Moorea is one of my favourite.

What is your favorite dish to cook when at home?
I have so many favourites, as I'm a big food lover but I would say Poisson Cru lait de coco (which is raw tuna with coconut milk and vegetables) is the most typically Polynesian and easy to make.

What are your 3 fashion essentials living in French Polynesia?
I would say shorts, because they're comfy and adapted to our weather, flip flops always on my feet because I like being able to take them off easily at any time and a flower at my ear to feel pretty and smell good.

As a Polynesian woman, what are your 3 beauty essentials?
Monoï would be my first, I like to mix it in my conditioner as a hair mask, but I also use it to hydrate my skin and tan at the beach.
I also use lip balm a lot because my lips tend to get dry with all the sun.
And finally, I do clay masks once a week to keep a clear skin.
