Solomon Islands
The Solomon Islands scatter across the southwestern Pacific in a double chain of six major islands and hundreds of smaller ones, their interiors dense with jungle and their coasts fringed by coral reefs. Melanesian culture shapes daily life here — kastom, the traditional system of beliefs and social rules, remains a living framework alongside Christianity. The air is equatorial and heavy, the sea a persistent shade of blue-green.
