My daily walk to school

The walk to school is stunning, past local dwellings (photo) with buffalo and goats and tiny little rice plantations with children coming to join me en route. It takes about 45 minutes down but it is quite a steep climb back at the end of the day. All the dwellings have some goats, with lots of kids.Surprisingly they don’t milk the goats.That comes from the buffalo. The children carry the kids like pet kittens

   Going past women sorting the wheat from the chaff in the morning  so that they can eat, or carrying really  vast bags of rice from a strap around their head is thought provoking.

 There are harvested white radishes outside all the dwellings which are as big as  baseball bats and twice the size of the many cucumbers.
