We met these two little girls while on a cycling tour from Battambang. They live in a little village and since this was during the holidays, help their mother with her daily chores. Their mother makes rice noodles and sells soups to the people in the village. A bowl of ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/two-little-cambodian-girls/feed/ 4 https://bkpk.me/51-degrees-should-we-evaporate/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=51-degrees-should-we-evaporate https://bkpk.me/51-degrees-should-we-evaporate/#comments Fri, 03 Oct 2014 10:40:10 +0000 Ashray http://bkpk.me/?p=13797
Back in 2011 we took an exciting and rather terrifying road trip through Oman. On a day when we would drive 800kms, one of our tires blew out in the middle of the night. After the police came (it took about 2 hours) and aided us with a recovery vehicle ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/51-degrees-should-we-evaporate/feed/ 3 https://bkpk.me/what-should-i-have-today/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=what-should-i-have-today https://bkpk.me/what-should-i-have-today/#comments Mon, 21 Oct 2013 05:33:33 +0000 Zara http://bkpk.me/?p=9857
We saw this little kid in a village near Siem Reap. He was walking and I tried to click his photo but, to the contrary of most local kids, he wasn’t interested in smiling and posing for the camera. I thought he was just shy, but then I realized he ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/what-should-i-have-today/feed/ 0 https://bkpk.me/an-andean-view/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=an-andean-view https://bkpk.me/an-andean-view/#comments Thu, 17 Jan 2013 14:27:09 +0000 Ashray http://bkpk.me/?p=6261
The Peruvian Andes will take you through countless vistas such as this. Sparsely populated villages with a massive church in the center. We passed through this village in the Colca Valley while busing from one place to another. It was hot in the sun and cold in the shade.

We met this Abuelo (Grandpa) up in the mountains of the Colca Valley, in Peru. We were sitting on the bench next to his, in the town square, waiting for a ride to go to the next village. I switched to his bench, which was under the shade of a ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/abuelo/feed/ 1 https://bkpk.me/amazonian-girl/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=amazonian-girl https://bkpk.me/amazonian-girl/#comments Sun, 09 Sep 2012 23:33:14 +0000 Zara http://bkpk.me/?p=4236
She lives in a village in the middle of the Amazonian jungle, in Peru. Her hometown has 94 people and it’s strangely called “Centro America”. The people of Centro America live with a sense of community rare in the world now-a-days: Centro-americans have their own plantations, but everybody helps their ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/amazonian-girl/feed/ 2 https://bkpk.me/gorgora-a-village-by-lake-tana/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=gorgora-a-village-by-lake-tana https://bkpk.me/gorgora-a-village-by-lake-tana/#comments Thu, 27 Oct 2011 08:03:28 +0000 Zara http://bkpk.me/?p=5733
Read about our stay in Gondar, from where we took this day trip to the village of Gorgora!   Upon arrival to Gondar in Northern Ethiopia we met Yohanne’s, a “self-trained” guide that makes a living suggesting hotels and guiding you on activities around town, despite the fact that there is ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/gorgora-a-village-by-lake-tana/feed/ 4
