Category Archives: Papua New Guinea

Few countries in the world can match Papua New Guinea in terms of cultural diversity. Visit this beautiful country before tourists take over.

Papua New Guinea has over a thousand different tribes, about 18 per cent of the country is urbanized and the rest is still covered with thick jungles. There is no road connection between one town and another - the only option is to fly.

It is strange how we as humans (though we like to call ourselves invincible adventurists) feel the need to bond with another human - and how it puts us back on track!

Papua New Guinea is not a very safe country to visit. You must be extra cautious at all times. Generally, if you are staying at any hotel, someone will accompany you always - I had two armed guards with me. A bit of a bother, but a safe option.
