Happy New Year! Photo

Photographer’s Note

These were a group of boys of the Akha village in the North West of Thailand in which I volunteered as a teacher...they were always so happy and cheerful...and I hope they are still as happy entering the new year!

Happy New Year!

I spent two and a half weeks in Thailand in 1998, and have never visited a more geniunely friendly place. We stayed in a small village near Chang Mai on the trip and I played football with the children in the village, and like the picture here, they were so happy and great to be with.

A great photo and one that brings back happy memories for me.

I agree with Margarita, "but something is wrong with this scan", but the real-time photo deserves best credit to the photographer.

Leonie: could you tell more about the location, and how to enroll to such a teaching program, please? I am unable to go, but I still want to hear. Thanks.

Thank you for the great shot. I remembered when I went to Borneo couple of years ago. Childrens there were also very cheerful.
