Papauta Project - Video 10 "Bond Beam"

Building a home for our mother, To'ilalo Lee (Papauta Project).

In June 2018 we went to Samoa to build our mother's house at the village of Papauta, Tuamasaga District.
~~~~~~~~~~
Stage 1 started on 12 June 2018 and concluded with the completion of the roof on 7 Aug 2018.
Stage 2 is expected to start before the end of 2018. This second phase will incorporate tiling, electrical, plumbing, room partitions, rendering, painting, kitchen and ceiling.
