Papua New Guinea

PG

Where the villagers are so friendly, they'll invite you to their village, feed you, and then ask you to marry their daughter. And you're not even a missionary.

Papua New Guinea: A place where the men are so strong, they'll lift a whole pig without breaking a sweat, but the women are so strong, they'll lift the whole conversation without breaking a smile.

Papua New Guinea: Where the music is so infectious, you'll find yourself dancing the traditional "Tok Pisin Shuffle" on the side of the road, much to the amusement of the locals, who are thinking, "What's wrong with this crazy foreigner?""
