I love Myanmar and it’s people.
The culture, the traditions, the monks, the peacefulness of rural life and the busy-ness of city life.
After a recent trip to Myanmar (formerly Burma), I was swept away by the friendly people, colorful scenery and stunning pagodas. I can’t wait to return.
Here’s some photos from the trip I wanted to share with you of the friendly (and happy) people of Yangon, Mandalay, Bagan and other Burmese cities.
