sometimes hardwork and dedication pays off. It's nice to get called into the bosses office and receive something nice.
scontato il mio commento, ma non dovrebbero essere scontate le morti sul lavoro che ancor oggi avvengono.
Die Menschen in Nepal meistern ihr Leben mit all seinen Schwierigkeiten wie wir uns das kaum vorstellen können und das meist mit einem Lächeln.
It looked so amazing, the white snow and the dark brown square! A huge flock of seaguls were helping the farmer. There were a sea of gulls behind the plough, and then a truck drowe by, and they all flew away, before I could shoot them! :(

To get rid of poverty, the farmers have started cultivating fish on their paddy fields to maintain their livelihood. Fish breeding in paddy fields encouraged. Considerably raising the per-hectare yield of rice and fish production In the rainy season throughout this region many small fish can be caught in the paddy fields and small ditches: an environment highly familiar to the Lao people. The small fish are used to make a dish called Pa dek. It is a kind of fermented salted fish, and to the people of Laos, this food is second only to rice in importance. The dish is made by mixing together rice bran, fish, and the salt harvested from the earth. The mixture is allowed to stand for over three months and is then ready to eat. A specialty of this region and an extremely important element of the culture.
I think the best way to explore Laos is by bicycle or feet. Meeting friendly Lao people in the small villages along the way and enjoying its countryside. I had to stop many times to make a photo. A beautiful scenery of rice fields next to the limestone hills. This woman was working in the paddy fields nearby Vang Vieng.
Om armoede van de hand te doen, zijn sommige boeren begonnen met het kweken van vissen op hun rijstvelden. Zo hebben de boeren aanzienlijk meer opbrengst per hectare van rijst en vis productie. In het regenseizoen worden in dit gebied vele kleine vissen in de rijstvelden en de kleine beekjes gevangen: De kleine vissen worden gebruikt om een schotel te maken genoemd Pa dek. Het is een soort vergiste gezouten vis. Naast rijst is deze schotel van groot belang voor de inwoners van Laos. De schotel wordt gemaakt door rijst, vis en het zout samen te mengen. Het mengsel moet drie maanden gisten en is dan is het klaar om te eten. Een specialiteit van dit gebied en een uiterst belangrijk element van hun cultuur.

lets try something different, shot by KHWD from a history board overlooking the fanad lighthouse, the wind was whistling, it was the wild atlantic way. I just can't imagine what it was like to work in this way, hard times indeed. Back braking, literally. A bit of Irish history! The weather had eaten into the picture board and you can see that in depth in this image capture. "lines of real history" Note the collie dog at her side (far right!)

In the 19th century, farming on the Fanad Peninsula in County Donegal, Ireland, was a mix of traditional practices and emerging rural industries. The local economy was primarily based on subsistence farming, with families growing crops and raising livestock to meet their own needs. However, there were also some commercial activities that began to take root during this period.
Key aspects of farming and rural life in 19th century Fanad:
Cattle Rearing: Rearing cattle was a significant part of the local economy. Farmers raised cattle both for their own use and for sale1.
Fishing: Herring fishing was another important activity. The peninsula’s coastal location made it ideal for fishing, which supplemented the agricultural income.
Flax Growing and Linen Production: Flax growing and linen production were introduced in the mid-18th century and continued into the 19th century. This industry provided an additional source of income for many families.
Kelp Production: The production of kelp, which was used as a fertilizer and in the manufacture of glass and soap, was also evident by the early 19th century.
Manufacture of Bent Hats and Shoes: These were among the small-scale industries that developed in the area, providing additional employment opportunities.
Despite these developments, the majority of the population in Fanad retained their Gaelic ways and the Irish language remained predominant until the mid-19th century
