Peter Dragicevich

Growing up in one of the main Polynesian pockets of the world's biggest Polynesian city, Peter's been surrounded by Pasifika sights and sounds for as long as he can remember, from the soaring Samoan choirs at his childhood church to the scintillating drummers that welcome his favourite rugby league team onto the field. Although his professional writing career has led him all over the world, Peter has now returned to West Auckland, where there's always a ready supply of taro at the local shops and he can swan around in a lava-lava all day whenever the mood takes him.
