4.    Have you always lived in FNQ? If not, where did you come from and how long have you been here: I was born in Rarotonga in the Cook Islands, lived for many years in New Zealand, went back to Rarotonga and moved to Cairns in 1995. 
5.    How long have you been working with us: Just over two years.
