Yap, Federated States of Micronesia
Yap - part of the Federated States of Micronesia which is located in between Guam & Palau...
2009... never would have thought that there is actually a place where stone money still applies...
where stone money banks exist more than the commercial banks on the island...
where women are still topless with their traditional grass skirts...
& where I could see signs of 'no betel-nut chewing' along with 'no food or drinks' at hospitals/swimming pool areas...
it was truly wonderful to get a taste of the Yapese traditional cultures throughout our stay
and being able to see the giant manta rays in our dive.
