First Contact with the Locals in Papua New Guinea (Ep2)
After a rough 4 day crossing, we entered through a narrow reef channel and anchored up in the middle of the night, not what you want to do ! We entered with no lights on to not draw attention as we were not yet sure if there could be potential pirates or malicious threats in the area. There is nothing quite like entering a foreign country by boat where your safety is not guaranteed. The only lights visible were distant fires from locals cooking their dinner. With what felt like a blink, we awoke with the realisation that we were no longer in the safety of Australian waters. There is no shops, no reception, and no way to tap out and get back home. We had anchored in an area we had heard nothing about, only picked off a satellite map, so we were anxious to meet the locals and get a feel for where we had landed. 00:00 - First Day in Louisiades, Papua New Guinea đ”đŹđŽ 0:24 - Traditional Sailing Canoes đ¶â” 1:11 - Preparing a Gift for the Chief đđ 2:38 - Exploring the Land đżđ¶ââïž 4:42 - Intro Video đŹ 5:29 - Diving with the Locals đ€żđ 6:30 - Learning How to Dehusk a Coconut Like a Local đ„„đš 7:49 - Learning How the Locals Prepare a BBQ đđ„ 8:15 - Food Preservation Techniques đ„«âïž 9:31 - Trying the Local Fish đđ 9:56 - Learning a Local Game Called "Target Shooting" đŻđź 11:02 - Trying Their Staple Food đđŽ 11:25 - Reflecting on Our First Few Days đđ€ 12:56 - Where to Find Fresh Water? đ§đ° 13:19 - Safety and Pirates đŽââ ïžâ ïž đ„ Episode 2 â Sailing the Louisiades, Papua New Guinea đLocation: Sudest Island, Louisiade Archipelago, Papua New Guinea â Support Our Journey â https://buymeacoffee.com/onceuponareef Or đ Send us a gift â https://throne.com/onceuponareef đ Follow us: đž INSTAGRAM: @onceuponareef & @wheres.poppy đĄ PATREON â https://www.patreon.com/c/onceuponareef đ„ Poppy's YouTube Channel â https://www.youtube.com/wherespoppy đ§ BUSINESS INQUIRIES - onceuponareef@protonmail.com Hey there, weâre Ryan and Poppy, a couple of adventure junkie sailors out to explore the most amazing reefs and islands in the world.
