More Niueans live in New Zealand than in Niue. Many came in the 1960s, after the atoll was hit by tropical cyclones – New Zealand aid introduced modern conveniences which changed the way people thought about traditional village life.
For some, this has meant a feeling of dislocation between Niue, the place of the heart, and urban New Zealand, with all its difficulties and opportunities.
