My Scholarship entry - Pho Kham Village

Food in Pho Kham was simple fare. Endless sticky rice, fresh greens, mushrooms from the jungle and when someone has a hankering for fresh meat, the kids are sent down to the river to hunt frogs. A few weeks before I arrived, a water buffalo drowned herself in a water-way and the whole village turned out to pull her out, butcher her and the meat was shared amongst all the families.
