the Northern area of Western Province,
a very Mountanous region.
Selbang is a fairly remote village of about 250 inhabitants that is accessible by a 7 day walk from Tabubil, which is primarily a mining town, or by chartering a plane and hoping the clouds were not too thick and you could get in. Many times travelers (myself included) were up there longer than expected due to heavy cloud cover. If you get up into Selbang and other villages in the area, you better not be on a schedule because you may find yourself as a guest for many days after your scheduled departure date!! But, what a place to spend a few extra days!! The people are very friendly and a joy to spend time with!! There were also 2 Peace Corps volunteers, Rob and Lis that were stationed there. I used to go to Selbang as often as possible!!
