Home away from home: What do we take with us when we leave our Pacific islands?

We're known as movers and migrators but trekking away from the islands doesn't mean we lose our cultures in the diaspora.We move away from our villages for many different reasons — it could be to play sport, for a job or to give our children different opportunities. But we always seem to find a way back home, even if it is by just knowing the best spot in the city for island comfort food.From their tropical island homes to suburban streets, you'll hear how Meanalynn Peter connected with her Marshallese community in Arkansas, how rugby found Ryu Koliniasi Holani a new home in Japan and what Nimilote Rokotoro together with the Fijian diaspora in England.Culture Compass was produced by Deadset Studios for ABC Radio Australia. This edition of Culture Compass was a repeat of the program broadcast on 20th February 2024
