Marntikarrakapu – Mangala Mulnyi – Nuriah

Marntikarrakapu is where my great grandmother Parnarr was born, my mother’s paternal grandmother. My grandfather Paddy Jadai’s mother. It’s very rocky, strong and mystical Country. The mystical feeling happens when the wind changes, the wind tells you that you can’t go further. The rocky cliffs are so beautiful at sunrise and sunsets. The colours change like it’s showing an emotion or telling you something. I love when you sit in silence and nature speaks. This makes my mind and heart be at peace.

Dhubu

Dhubu, known as Mackerel in the Kalaw Lagau Ya dialect of the Western Torres Strait Islands, holds a special place in my family’s culinary traditions. It was a cherished delicacy as a child, and my family would rise with the dawn, eager to embark on fishing trips for this prized catch. Beyond its significance as a beloved food, Dhubu also represents a vital totem for my mother’s kinship, rooted in the Daureb tribe of Murray Island, nestled in the eastern island group of the Torres Strait. This connection to Dhubu is woven deeply into our heritage, embodying a bond to our ancestral land and culture.
