The Robert Louis Stevenson Museum is a museum in Samoa, which commemorates the life of the Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson.  The museum displays a curated version of his residence, as Stevenson lived in it.  Its establishment was funded by overseas donations.  The house is presented as if Stevenson was still alive and guided tours are run daily.  Stevenson's grave on Mount Vaea can also be accessed from the museum.  Most of the photography relating to Stevenson's life in Samoa is held at the Writer's Museum in Edinburgh, Scotland.  This museum also holds guns which Stevenson used in Samoa, as well a collection of sea shells and Samoan ethnographic objects which he acquired there.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Louis_Stevenson_Museum   

Samoa, officially the Independent State of Samoa and until 1997 known as Western Samoa, is a Polynesian island country consisting of two main islands (Savai'i and Upolu); two smaller, inhabited islands (Manono and Apolima); and several smaller, uninhabited islands, including the Aleipata Islands (Nu'utele, Nu'ulua, Fanuatapu and Namua).  The capital city is Apia. The Lapita people discovered and settled the Samoan Islands around 3,500 years ago.  They developed a Samoan language and Samoan cultural identity.  See graphics at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samoa   

Literally translated as “stir-fried rice cake,” tteokbokki is a beloved Korean rice cake dish with many variations and a rich history.  It’s also spelled ddukbokki, ddeokbokki, dukbokki or topokki.  This spicy rice cake dish is enormously popular as a street food and also often enjoyed at home.  Tteokbokki is made with a type of rice cake called garaetteok a cylinder-shaped white rice cake made with short grain rice.  The thick type is sliced into thin oval shapes for making tteokguk (rice cake soup), while thinner, shorter rice cakes are used for making tteokbokki, hence the name tteokbokki tteok.  It was developed in 1953, the year the Korean War ended, by a woman named Ma Bok-rim in the Sindang-dong neighborhood in Seoul.  The chewy rice cake in a spicy gochujang sauce instantly became popular as an affordable comfort snack.  posted by Hyosun  Find recipe at https://www.koreanbapsang.com/tteokbokki-spicy-stir-fried-rice-cakes/  You can find these rice cakes freshly made, refrigerated, or frozen at Korean markets.  They come in various shapes and sizes.
