Funny, strange & true


Inner wear as outer wear

Before Madonna made it a thing, the Cambodian women in Kampot were blending inner wear & outerwear.  We have seen bank workers, market sellers, housewives wearing pyjamas to go about their business.  Fluffy slippers also seems derigeur

The humble bucket...

The humble bucket has so many uses.  We have seen a clothes washing being done in Inle Lake from floating houses & longboats; in the sea; in rivers while tourist boats pass to see the sunset.  We have also seen lots of examples of where the footpath is an extension of the kitchen bench to behead & pluck a chicken (below); pluck herbs; & cut & deliver ice (given the number & ferocity of the tools at play it really was an "Ice man cometh" moment.
