Sabaidee (greetings in Laotian),
Can you spot your three 650 classmates in this picture?
And can you guess which other classmate took the picture? I'll give you a clue: he's tall and funny.
As you probably know, this past summer a group of us were in Thailand teaching and doing 690. Many of us took a trip together to neighboring Laos over a long weekend. This picture is right after we got massages. My masseuse on that day could speak English really well. I really enjoyed talking to her and hearing about what her life was like. As I recall, she worked really long days and I think had 1 or maybe only half a day off per week. She seemed quite upbeat and had a positive attitude, but talking with her made me realize how much I take for granted and made me start to appreciate things more.
If you want to check out the town where we were, click here: Luang Prabang
Now I'm going to try to do some special tricks on this blog...
