You may laugh at the thought that another part of this island of New Guinea is not venturing out but this Momase product flew to almost the tip of PNG in the opposite direction to home.
I learned that Milne Bay has skilled boat builders, furniture makers and found a renowned PNG artist in a small obscure studio whose artwork reflected his heritage.
Friends took me to see the memorial to the battle of Milne Bay and I imagined that peace filled bay lit up with gunfire. The same friends explained how the matriarchal culture influenced maternal and child health. We laughed as we tried to coax one's toddler son into smiling and smiled as his shrieks filled the air near the bay.
And along the way, I started learning how to truly live this beautiful life.
