Woah like even girls as young as 5 years old already have rings on their necks. These people are located high up a mountain and all they do is handicraft. The girls just weave blankets and bags together to sell. The whole village sells the same thing so all I thought was: They should have a different strategy as sell different things.
Such a beautiful view!
I think most of their income comes from the tourists that visit, because tourists that visit the village will have to pay 500 Baht, and by looking at the number of blankets and woven items displayed, not many tourists purchase their handmade products.
Some stalls selling handmade items/ souvenirs.
When I saw the kids there I kind of pitied them, because they all don't look really happy. Either they display forced smiles, or they don't smile. They all look lethargic. But I mean its quite understandable, can you imagine doing the same handicraft day after day?
They will be doing this for the rest of their lives, literally, makes me appreciate my life now. I know it sounds cliche, but its true.
Anyways here are some photos. I had to tip them for photos with them by the way.
This is what I mean by they have the same routine everyday. This young girl is rolling yarn into a ball.
This is the oldest long neck lady.
This lady has large earholes.
I just thought she is really pretty.
Such a cute little kid.
She looks around my age right?
Houses they live in.
Pretty view.
Just in case you're wondering what do the men do, they do more physical work if I'm not wrong. I saw a man hammering something. Oh, and they do not have long necks.
Okk byeee
