PhD Pilot Study – Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea

Day 2 – Thursday 21 October 2010

I stay at the World Vision Team House all day, fleshing out some remaining details of my 12-page long interview questionnaire. My plan is to keep the questions simple and broad enough to test out my empirical data gathering method. I can always fine-tune it later on. I also feel a bit better. I find myself praying quite a bit as well...

I sense this research trip could be challenging in terms of logistical uncertainties, personal comforts and assumed risks.
