village life

and everything is perspective....
I am not feeling well today....I am totally shocked......and do have a bad consciousness,....

watch that and you know maybe why......

we have visited a little village today .....
and I am totally shocked HOW they live......and I am sure this is a wealthy village as they do have this cultural programme and the help of the tourists so even worse....

they do live from growing rice (which then is only used as ceremonial food....for weddings and religious feasts.....can you immagine? you do all this work just for ceremonies and on "normal days" you eat maize puree???????)

so this is what most of them do for a living....and they are happy because at least they have fertile soil so that they can grow something at all...

and growing rice is really much work...you need to plant the seedlings BY HAND!!!!!! (of course done by women....)
