Anita Purcell-Sjolund lives in Falun, Sweden, a town of 52,000 people. She's lived there for more than 10 years with her Swedish husband, Peter, and is the only Samoan in town.
Ms Purcell-Sjolund lectures at the local university, and is also working on her PHD in London, where she travels every few weeks.
"I'm really lucky my husband is keen to learn about my Samoan culture," she said. "I try to cook variations of Samoan food; sapa suey, pani popo, but I really miss taro."
