Post Cards from the vacation that is my life. the "I have been some remote placeless but....... " section

 

This from my most recent trip to Myanmar. Soooo.... I m now back in Yangon after my journey to the outskirts of the absolute middle of nowhere.

 

So about this image- I have a hardfast rule.... I NEVER GIVE MONEY TO ANYONE. The reason is, to do this, as was I was told early on by one of my "fixers" is that by doing this all you do is to help create a society of beggars.

 

So give food, give shampoo, give soap, give paper, give pencils, give toothbrush yes. Cash? Nope (unless it's to a school then absolutely) My only exception is when I cross paths with a Buddhist Monk or Nun, Their journey is one of prayer and living off the kindness of strangers. Got no problem with that. So I gave these baby nuns (maybe 5000 Kyat. (about 3 dollars US) They didn't believe how much wealth they had to give the nunnery.
