The country I would like to visit

I wish someday in my life I could go to the Independent State of Papua New Guinea.  This half island (it shares the land of New Guinea with Indonesia) is the unknown neighbor of Australia, New Zealand and the same Indonesia. 

It is one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world with more than a thousand different cultural groups, a strong ancient tradition and 848 languages. Most of the Papuan people still live in villages, where only the 18 per cent of its population do it in urban places and even though the planet has been studied almost completely, Papua New Guinea is one of the world's least explored countries, culturally and geographically.

Most of Papuan society rely on subsistence farming, do not dress with jeans, live with less than a dollar per day and a large proportion of population is illiterate. That’s why I think this half of New Guinea it is not tourists’ favorite destiny, even though it's beautiful beaches.

In few words, Papua New Guinea is a primitive place for occidental people like us. I wish I could go someday, I’m really not a brave person so this would be a challenge for me: to discover and survive in one of the most extraordinary countries of the world.

I wish to dive at Milne Bay (in the picture), Kitava or Doini Island!

Papua New Guinea is divided in 22 province-level divisions, I hope to stay a long time there for knowing almost every place (I'm dreaming), but Oro, Morobe, Madong province and Port Moresby in the National Capital District are my top destinations.
