First picture I took of the view outside my room.
I miss Luang Prabang. I was sleeping like a baby there. No work to think, no nothing. It was just vacation bliss. I've never felt that same thing in other places I've been to. I could imagine myself living there, actually.
Look at the monk statuette and the boy. I wonder what it feels like growing up in this place?
I swear I'm coming back. So many nooks and crannies that I've still to explore.
There is that sense of calm I've felt there.
It's a nice place to grow old because everything seems to be in this unhurried pace.

how gorgeous is Luang Prabang?! I absolutely loved it there - some of my pics are on my flickr - have a look see. Did you go to the waterfalls? really liking the article on skirts - very interesting and spot on. its like anything - living in the west everything becomes so homogenised and uniform that those kind of garments move from the ordinary (save for Scotland) to the extra, and then wearing one you end up constantly being conscious of how people look at you. Imagine is much the same is asia with the rush towards westernisation, especially in Vietnam and Cambodia. Views?
oh LP was fantastic, amazing!
Re the skirt, I guess so. It baffles me how strong the influence of the Western world towards the view of a piece of clothing, I see Cambodians wearing sarongs here and it's actually quite normal also before in the Philippines called patadyong. But now it seems most Pinoys think skirts are feminine when in fact it's neither femme nor masculine. Using one doesn't make you become less or more of the attribute given to it.
