Papua New Guinea June-July... looking for travel partners

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea

I'm going to be in PNG from the first week of June to the middle of July, based in Madang, definitely headed to Goroka, and looking for travel partners for side trips. My itinerary is pretty open at this stage, but I'm most interested in the islands... If you're planning on being in the area I'd love to hear from you. I'm a woman traveling solo, so I'm very interested in meeting other women who want to get out of town a bit but are nervous about going it alone.

I have a fair amount of Tok Pisin (been studying for about 6 months), if that helps.
