Here’s a selection of photos from the mountains of Northern Laos. We have a few more days of mountains before the plains of the Mekong. This is an amazingly beautiful country, with very friendly people.

    I feel like I am there. It’s always the people that make things beautiful. The warmth of human spirit is unbeatable.

    Great photos. Makes me feel like I have been there with you. Whoops, just noticed that I’m mimicking the previous commenter–but anyhow, I second the motion.

    Thank you for your comments. The photos are easy, it’s the other stuff that gets hard sometimes. We’re making memories. Lots to come.

    Are these pics of bohemians as in the ones who migrated to the plains in americas along long time ago??

    Jade, We use Bohemians to describe a lifestyle of freedom and creativity, rather than an ethnic group.
