Quê mùa 09 collection

me in my grandmother's Nón ^^

my grandmom and her daughter-in-law (i.e. my mommy ^^)

This entry I'd be dedicating to my beloved Quê and the life in this rural area :X

it's a rural area beside the Red River, in old Hatay province (the extended Hanoi now)

the road home...

the main earnings from crops are here!!! Bananas everywhere in the garden hô hô

a hard rain this summer took away a large area of ngói in the roof
view from outside to the kitchen
inside the kitchen

Bếp củi (her old fire wood... use til now... when I was a kid, I loved to come inside the kitchen and sit next to the fire until the body feel the very deep warmth and my face skin got cracked a lil LOL)

many old ladies like this one (around 70s) are on the road back to their home from the rice paddle field
amazingly...

Luckily I come there right at the time of harvesting. All the paddy fields filled with the yellow color ^^


Interestingly, I wrote this entry half month ago but now I'm still finishing it haha
and some days ago Gerard've told us about the trip to experience the VILLAGE life and harvesting! So funny I rooted from a typical village where life mainly depends on corn and rice, and now I'm going to experience the work that my grand grand father, my grand father and my father did years long to earn their living... It would be very hard, I know... but it's worth experiencing! And I believe even I will be living in this city for another 100 years, I'd not have much chance (~0%) of trying doing this once :D I'm so looking forward to it!!! And for UC or any VNese guys who have never know what it may look like when the whole "Village" in the harvesting season, here are some of the pictures I took in the trip back to my QUê half month ago ^^


P.S: This course is getting much much worthy to take!!!!
