YEAR OF THE OX


Chinese new year's day in Bangkok; I was walking close to the river, in Chinatown. An old lady was cleaning around and she came closer to me and since I was standing close to the small temple I thought maybe I was being intrusive, but then she kept doing her thing and she started singing. I loved it and it was working so well with the river around. Then we talked and she said she had seen a lot of french people in Thailand, and that one month there was a long time, good for me; and that she was born in Thailand but that her parents had come from China. And then she said we have a good vegetarian restaurant, you should try it and I said I can't I have to eat at home with my family. I did not dare asking for a picture and I think it's ok like this.
