When chucking a sickie becomes your new norm, it's time to ditch the corporate cubicle and say hello to Ottoville!
The renowned city of Apia is situated within reach of Ottoville. You can find this busy centre 120 kilometres to the northwest.
Does a morning walk with the sparkling sea as your backdrop sound good to you? Then organise an outing to Lalomanu Beach, 85 kilometres to the west.
Break free on a trip to some nearby natural beauty spots. 10 kilometres out of Ottoville, National Park of American Samoa is waiting to be explored. Mount Alava, 9 kilometres away, is another a popular place to relax in the outdoors.
Are you interested in the area's religious side? Pay a visit to Leone Church.
Don't be alarmed if you find a few fellow sightseers at the Ili-ili Golf Course.
If you journey 1 kilometre to the southwest from Ottoville, you'll find Faleniu. Lots of travellers like to use this destination as a base when visiting Matafao Peak and Fagatele Bay National Marine Sanctuary.
Your eyes shouldn't have all the fun while you're in American Samoa. Give your taste buds a little lovin' too by trying out the local food and drink. After all, you can't say you've really experienced a destination until you've tasted its flavours.
A typical ingredient in the cuisine here is bananas. Another is coconuts. They're worth giving a try if they're not already a part of your food repertoire.
There's always a local recipe or two that you need to cross of the list, and while you're in Ottoville, palu sami (baked coconut cream and onions wrapped in taro leaves) is one of them. Oka l’a (marinated raw fish) is another specialty that isn't to be missed.
A meal isn't complete without dessert, so stop stressing about counting calories and tuck into one of the most well-liked after-dinner treats, grated taro root and brown sugar.
Try to knock down that old language barrier by memorising a couple of greetings and expressions in the local tongue. You'll gain a more enriching experience and some new friends while you're at it! To start, try to pronounce 'Ete ta fia siva?'. It means 'would you like to dance?'. Maybe you'll find 'Ou te sau mai ...' easier to say? This means 'I am from..'.
Every year on the 1st of June, Independence Day holds an important place in the hearts and minds of the locals. It offers a fantastic chance to discover the country's past and have a little fun while you're at it!
Like all good things in life, your time here will eventually come to an end. When it's finally time to depart, say one last "Tōfā soifua" and spend your remaining holiday allowance on some unique souvenirs.
Pago Pago International Airport (PPG) is the nearest terminal, 2 kilometres to the east. Make sure you give yourself enough time to get there.
Want some hot tips? The Tradewinds Hotel and Sadie's by The Sea are neck and neck when it comes to excellent service and a decent night's sleep.
