Child Monk
A novice monk at an orphanage near Inle lake. One would think that with their strict upbringing and religious education that these child monks behave differently than other children, and you would be dead wrong. They are as curious, fun loving and as mischievous as any child you will run into anywhere in the world. One of the enduring lessons of travel is realizing that in spite of differences in dress, skin color, language, and religion, there truly is more that unites humanity than what divides us.
