Georgia-Leigh Vele discovered an old journal not long ago where as an 8-year-old her number one dream was to attend an Olympic Games. This week she will fulfill that childhood dream and even get to carry the Papua New Guinea flag in the Opening Ceremony so we chat about her story, the pride in her country and this huge honour. We also hear about what it's like dating another professional athlete and her new tattoo representing her culture.
Also along for the ride is Talei Matairakula and Melissa Fare to wrap up the enormous amount of sport from across the region.
