Travel

Young New Zealander MARTIN ARLINGTON is already a traveller with a wealth of experi ence. Recently he quit working on a North Sea oil rig for a time to return home and, later, to have a maritime experience of a very different kind: he travelled on the mission boat Morning Star to visit a friend in the tiny village of Jelewaga on the island of Sudest in Papua New Guinea’s Louisiade group. He relates his experience in the story below.
