Thats it! I'm moving to Tahiti! I'm sick and tired of this place lol. This is how the media and the Government is always trying to lie and boast tourism on many of the Islands around the Pacific.

Wow, this video is old school, I'm pretty sure it's not like that anymore. But every place has it's way of life and struggles. Tahiti is truly a beautiful place and the Tahitian culture is beautiful.
