Commuting in Viang-Vieng, Laos

I spent the afternoon exploring the local neighborhoods of Viang Vieng Laos and came across these young monks 'commuting'.  The little town lie between Vientiane and Luang Prabang, making it an excellent overnight stop.  The town was centered around backpackers, so you had to dig quite deep to get to the 'real' village.  I found it across the river; where kids played and father's worked; a wonderful place for a photowalk.

Ever want to give back when traveling in the world of need? Love to take photos? Then join Dog Meets World, the photo diplomacy project and help connect cultures through the power of photography. The ambitious mission of Dog Meets World  (DMW) is to give all children/families in developing countries personal photographs, often for the first time. DMW seeks to change the way people see others and rather than simply taking pictures, to give them as well. You've got a digital camera, just add a portable printer and the stuffed Foto mascot dog and practice Take & Give Photography!
