Roadside Stall
This may not look like much but it captures an interesting moment of everyday life in Thailand. Notice the smoke of the fire wafting on the breeze. Today, as I type this, it is about 95 degrees outside at my home in the Washington, DC area and it feels like my memories of Bangkok. I can’t imagine standing at a hot fire in the sun, cooking as people approached and having to stoke the coals all day long.
As I watched the two young women who are turned away from us, I wondered what they were buying at the store and what conversation was going on. As they turned and walked away, I wondered where they were going and whether they found what they wanted and how this small interaction fit into the larger story of their day or their lives. I love little snapshots of life like this.
