13 sleeps

In two weeks' time, I'm leaving this world for another: that of Timor Leste. The itinerary looks like this:

- Goroka - Port Moresby - Cairns - Darwin - Dili -

I haven't got a return ticket, because - fingers crossed - it will be back to PNG via Indonesia (maybe Denpasar - Jayapura - Wutung/the West Papua/PNG border). What I know about Timor I know mainly from earnest historical-political books and articles; I can't wait to learn about it in person, on foot, with my own two eyes. Although I know comparisons are odious, it will be interesting to compare Timor with PNG. Hopefully going to meet up with some other volunteers there. And I'll be travelling with a good mate, which will also be fun. I'm getting excited.
