These pics are mainly from the 14 hour road trip we had to Chiang Ria area, where we stayed at the wifes brother's place in the mountains.

wow - looks amazing  :y
a friend of mine spent a few months in Laos, volunteer work, staying in shacks going village to village on a moped - when she got back she freaked at all the useless crap everyone fills their houses with here  :y

what an experience these remote places are - makes you take stock of what life's all about :o

hope you had a great time - and well done the Arabs! - travelled up the A9 from work in the middle of a tangerine convoy yesterday  ;D

Yeah always enjoy seeing the real people and the way they live, which is totally different from the Thai Issan people, e.g., they speak different language in the mountains, drink tea, smoke rolled tobacco in dried corn leaves. Water in the mountains is a commodity and some of the villagers wash and shower just from a communal tap outside someone else's house, luckily we had a shared enclosed toilet  :y. Half the village came to see us, hence all the women and kids, and men every day we were there, the food they eat also varies from Issan food :y......yes and well done the Arabs :y
