Ahitea

In the REO dictionary of the French Polynesian Ministry of Culture’s translation and interpreting service, “AHITEA” means “to be in the sun”, which inspired director Karim Mahjouba, and which by extension became “to make a place for oneself in the sun”. The name fits perfectly with the image that the show wants to convey: training, working or undertaking in tourism to make a place for yourself in the sun, both figuratively (from a social point of view for professional success) and literally, because tourism in French Polynesia is synonymous with sunshine!

Who presents AHITEA?

The host of season 3 is once again Tamatoa, a young Polynesian aged 23. Working as a young man in the Maohi Protestant Church, Tamatoa has a wealth of experience and a strong cultural background. Bilingual in French and Tahitian, this nursery school teacher practises Reo Maohi. He’ll be the perfect ambassador to motivate and immerse viewers!

AHITEA – SEASON 3: A NEW SEASON, TWONEW FEATURES, THREE NEW SECTIONS

1) The ” Experience ” section – New: Tamatoa will take viewers on a tourism experience where local tourism professionals will be able to showcase their activities and explain how they are adapting to the current health situation while complying with health measures.

2) The ” Prospects ” section: This section will be devoted to the business of tourism, showcasing the sector’s dynamism and encouraging people to invest fully in our tourism industry.

3) The ” A rave na ” section – New : Viewers are invited to meet an influencer or specialist who shares their know-how, tips or passion for their culture or way of life.
