    BACK WHEN WE COULD TRAVEL… A PHOTO A MONTH

    Date:

    For one month during Christmas /New Year 2018-19 I travelled to Myanmar with a Chin family now living in the western suburbs.

    A 24 hour bus journey from Yangon to Hakka, capital of Chin state followed by an 8 hour 4WD trek we arrived in the village of Zephai, my friend’s wife’s birthplace, not far from the Indian border state of Mizoram for the Christian religious celebrations. A week later we went by motorcycle to her husband’s village, Vawngtu. I took this shot of local children at their house in the main street.
