tea leaves + colour pencils + sharpener + drawing block + photo album + SGD10 (~200+ baht) for our 'courier' to buy eggs/milk/fruits as gifts:

P6100217

if all goes well, these will soon be on another wooden floor thousands of kilometres away....

next time I go to e village I will bring along paper + pencils for e kids to draw me pictures like what Thanchanok did when we lent her our pen + rough paper =) but NO markers nor pens like what those ang moh tourists handed out - paper is a rarity in e village & all e kids will just use one another as their canvas & turn into amateur tattoo artists....that night we had green kids with green scrawlings & doodles on their shins, arms & faces in our house ....other houses in e village had red/blue/yellow/purple/black/orange/light green/pink kids, depending on which marker pen they had grabbed =P
