Luang Prabang, Laos

A grand mix between French colonial and traditional Lao architecture and overwhelming nature, Luang Prabang was a great VISA run for us.

Make, Do

I’m a peculiar traveler. I try to exclusively engage in things that fall under these 2 categories:

1. Make.
2. Do.

This is the messenger bag I made.

Materials

Liner – Angry Birds bag I used for teaching at the rural Siem Reap school, Cambodia.

Outer layer – polka dotted 1 meter cloth from Ho Chi Minh City central market, Vietnam.

Side panels – table mats from Bangkok department store, Thailand.

Skills learned

Sewing by hand, particularly the backstitch (stronger).

Patience.

A benefit of slow travel is the relaxed time to do such ridiculous things 🙂

Thai massage school

At Old Medicine Hospital, Chiang Mai, Thailand. Practicing the first steps of Thai massage. Yes, that is confusion written all over my face.
