Just asfter crosssing the Mekong river in Vientiene I realized how social and frendly the Thai people are. Always ready to welcome you with a wide smile.
How a Buddhist monk ordination ceremony can become a party with a band in a truck and people dancing as if ther is no tomorrow.
Monckeys into the wild in the Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park. And some others used as a coconut-pickers… Palm trees and ruber trees are a constant in the Thailand lansacape.
Small Thai-Boxing club near Prachuap where the kids were gladly posing for me.
Since Japan that I didn’t see the sea. I had to cycle 3000km the find the sea horizon again!
Always fun to take some shots to school kids. Some of them runned away with shiness from the camera, others stayed as cool super-stars.
Watching organised fighting between two 500kg bulls has long been a traditional pastime in Thailand’s southern provinces. The animals are selected at around 3-4 years old, then after one year of training they are ready to enter the ring. The fights are long, vicious and bloody. I meet some of these animals trained for fighting.
Bangkok.
Some other smiles.
