The beginning





Hello friends!

As I marvel at the somewhat surreal fact that I've already been in Papua New Guinea for a full week, I thought it would be fun/useful to share some of my experiences and contact info, given that I'll be here til Aug, if not til 2011. As most of you know, I moved to PNG to work on some climate change capability building, and so far its been quite an adventure. Notwithstanding frequent power blackouts, internet unreliability and the absence of hot water over the weekend, the rural environment is simply beautiful and I've showcased the tip of the iceberg from a hiking trip that I enjoyed thoroughly on Sunday at 8am in attached pics.

While I'm here, if any of you get the opportunity, please feel free to visit as I will be able to provide a tour of this interesting place. I'm based in Port Moresby, but planning to take some weekend trips to the highlands and other provinces and will continue to take pictures. In addition, I'm planning to take trips to Australia (Sydney and Melbourne at least) so if you're there please let me know if you have a timing preference. Since I won't be seeing too much of any of you in the near future, I would love to hear about what you're up to via email or phone!!
