Would love to chat to anyone who's lived in Pohnpei

OzzieEve

Hi there,


My husband has just been offered a job in Pohnpei. We have 2 boys (10 & 12) and will be moving sometime in the next few months (although, husband will be moving sooner, there's still a lot to do here, so I'll tidy up the loose ends before the boys and I move over).


I'm posting here in the hopes of meeting some people before we move to help with our transition.


We currently live in Canberra, Australia. I'm really looking forward to a change of pace & meeting new people!


I have a million questions about Pohnpei, from the weather, accommodation, what types of activities there are that I can get involved in, things I should pack vs things I should leave behind... But I've no idea where to start!


Would love to chat to anyone who's lived in Pohnpei or is currently living there and can offer any advice?!


Cheers, Eve

Weather and other basic stuff is a quick Google job.

Most people forget to check up on local food (youtube.com works for that) and don't forget to look at political stability and crime rates.
