Amazing animals

 

As we learn a little by little about Papua New Guinea, we have to realize how different Papua New Guinea and its people are from us, Japan and Japanese despite that Papua New Guinea is a part of Oceania, not that far from Japan.

Papua New Guinea consists of over 600 islands. The country is rich with the beautiful nature remain untouched, with unbelievable animals, birds and fish, and cultural diversity.

Striking mask culture

 

 

Looking at pictures of festivals, we must be amazed by different tribes displaying their unique culture and styles – costumes, masks, dances, colours and sounds.

It might be something to do with hospitable and fun-loving nature of Papua New Guineans.

 

 

Congratulations Conscilliah on receiving Master’s Degree.  We will miss your killer smile 😀
