Papua New Guinea, a remote, mysterious country, secluded from the modern world! Where Stone Age continues, where unknown, belligerent tribes live which\u00a0 –\u00a0 according to some rumours…\u00a0 –\u00a0 still exercise headhunting and cannibalism. A common clich\u00e9, much too often portrayed in the media and stuck in people\u2019s heads…<\/p>\n
In my mission as \u2018globetrotting freerider\u2019 it magically draws me to always even more unusual places and I simply love to immerse myself in other worlds and new cultures. With this in mind I packed up my 60kgs and jumped on a plane to an absolutely unique place, that only a few have discovered for themselves and travel agencies seldom offer as a destination: Papua New Guinea.\u00a0 I wanted to find out whether there are any grounds to the prejudices and clich\u00e9s and obviously also what the country has to offer in terms of kitesurf-potential.<\/p>\n
With PNG I certainly hit the jackpot! What I found literally blew my mind and my journey to this amazing and truly unique place has been without a doubt till now THE very most special trip in my entire career as kitesurf-professional.<\/p>\n
