Inside Papua New Guinea: Land of 860 Languages

By Drew Binsky | DrewBinsky Travel | 30 Jun 2022

I've made it safely to my 134th country - PAPUA NEW GUINEA!

The last 48 hours here in PNG have been nothing short of incredible.

I am truly amazed by how culturally and linguistically diverse Papua New Guinea is -- 12% of all the world's spoken languages are here! And not to mention, the stunning landscapes of green mountains, rolling foothills and white sanded beaches.

It's like an unexplored wonderland, and I couldn't be happier to be here right now! Papua New Guinea is the world's last frontier.

I got in touch with a friend of a friend, Bruce, who has let me crash at his place and he has driven me all over the country.

This video gives you an inside look at my perspectives of Papua New Guinea and some of the interesting things I've learned so far about this remote country.

Have you ever been to Papua New Guinea? Have any other tips of things to see/do while here?
