im back from an incredible experience of a lifetime.
from spore to KL. to Vientiane. to Luang Prabang. then to Muang Kham village. from Muang Kham village back to LP. then back to Vientiane.
15 fulfilling days.
from Vientiane to Vang Vieng. then back to Vientiane again, followed by KL and finally spore.
adding 4 more memorable days.
in total, 19 beautiful priceless days.
it's not easy trying to putting those memories into words. much less try and let others have a taste of the ups and downs, bitter sweet, happy sad experiences, with lifeless words.
photos may speak a thousand words. but i feel it's the subtle things we experience in life that get uncaptured, yet we still can remember for a long time to come. it's the raw feelings emotions that it's never easy or impossible to encapsulate in words with the limited vocab skills i have.
i love the feeling of working together as a team. the feeling of caring and looking after one another. the feeling of encouraging one another on. the feeling of sharing almost anything even our deepest secrets. the feeling of trusting relying on one another even in times of adversities. the feeling of laughing crying teasing singing stargazing sleeping whining dancing together. the feeling of falling sick and ls-ing together.
it's not about just one person. it's all about us, 23 of us, plus xai. it's all about us, with the villagers of muang kham. it's about how our lives have interwined and forged together for those nineteen days, despite the language barriers. it's about the footprints we left behind, the laughter in the wind, the tears in the sand.
yea im suffering from laos withdrawal symptoms.
