South Thailand summer trip photos

Hello friends,

Recently a friend of me passed a bunch of photos from our summer trip to the south of Thailand (HatYai area). It was a fantastic week of spending time in a village and teaching English at a local school. My friend is quite a talented photographer that captured a bunch of images of me interacting with the villages and children.













My Thai language skills are extremely limited but smiles, patience, and an attitude of humility go very far in this Malay/Thai Muslim community.

I cannot wait to return to this community where no one is a stranger and everyone eats from the same table. They share their crops, the workload, the care for children, and the hardships of life.
