Long Neck Karen Hill Tribe


This lady was the first to catch my attention during my adventure at the Long Neck Karen Hill Village in Chiang Dao.

She could speak minimum Chinese, enough to sell her tribe's handmade goods. For that, I bought a Turquoise Stone Necklace, which was almost as heavy as my camera!
Price? 100 Baht = RM10.

The village is surrounded by natural flora and fauna, primitive resources and "machines" to prepare food for the family. Two little boys were following us through our walk around the hill.

This scene made me smile.

Cute Thai Boy

He posed for me when he saw me taking a few pictures of a Cute Thai Girl.

It was a heart-wrenching moment to see the children of this hilltribe longing for attention with utter innocence.

I also took a picture of their classroom... Felt like I was in one of the movies where there was only one hut, using only natural breeze and sunlight to guide these lovely children to their bright future.
