Hafa adai and welcome to Taotao Tåsi 🌅 People of the Ocean 👋🤙

This is Part 3 In the Pacific 🐳

If you're new here, start at Part 1 On the beach 🏝️

This series takes us on a voyage through the Pacific Ocean with Palu Larry Raitegal, a traditional master navigator of the sea. Palu Larry will share stories of how navigators open sea lanes to connect to islands and how they use the stars, water, land, birds, fish, and whales to navigate. We’ll also talk about the importance of exchange, asking for permission, and respecting Indigenous knowledge.

So, come aboard our sakman (canoe), and voyage the open ocean with a Master Navigator and your host, Jaybyrd Castro. In this episode, we sail through the Pacific Ocean and listen to stories about the 32 different waypoints of our island destination, Guåhan (Guam).
