This story is about one backpacker and his journey into Southeast Asia and the exploration and experiences of culture, food, people, religion, natural wonders, human wonders, and life. I present my story through photos. Enjoy and Thanks!

Your very welcome! It was different lifestyle out there and amazing. Seeing these people living on less then $1 USD a life or less and are happy with life! Is amazing.
