The beauty of the landscape -- on her face

Explore #65 on Thursday, February 5, 2009

 

This is Thi, from my small village. She is 74 now and still fully alert and in great shape, walking daily to Sapa town and back, about 10km., working the rice fields, making the hemp cloth, sawing her own and family clothing, etc. All this with no electricity or running water at home. Yet, she is a happy person in good health and full of energy. Always a smile on her face. I love her.

 

The New Year celebration continues

 

Pls. note that I’m not much on line and Internet connection is slow and under the weather here. Wanted to post this earlier but Internet was out for most of the day. As I promised last time, I will catch up when I’m back. Thanks.
