thailand

i went to Thailand for volunteering (study camp) for 2 weeks in December.

before the camp started, i stayed in my friend's house in Bangkok. it was the biggest private house i had ever been. it had 5 stories and there were two female servants!!
she took me to the temple one day, and told me many people sit and pray around the budhha for a few days,not worrying about raining or eating. it was very surprising how faithful they were.

i lived with 4 orphan boys with a caregiver who treated the boys as her own children during my volunteering. there i learned how giving they are in spite of the fact they arent rich at all. whenever they got food, they went to their neighbours and shared the food. the boys at the age of 5 to 10, already had learned to be giving from the adults. When we played the game together and if i was losing on points, they always secretly gave me some points till my point is higher than theirs.

wonderful culture!
