Ethnic jewellery being made (and please don't use your mobile phone while working!)
And so here we are, at the first of the 'factory visits' in Chiang Mai. I had already mentally decided to coax/ coerce/ sweet talk my driver into heading off factories and simply driving around town after this. Well, but back to the present, most of these factory visits have volunteers sitting around who hurriedly run and take up positions behind their work stations to really ham it up for the tourist cameras. This chap has not even put away his cell phone! (Chiang Mai, Thailand, Apr. 2014)
