Rice picking and beach time

                Part of the volunteering experience is to learn how the locals  live and work so I join many people's rice field to help them pick the rice. They use thier own labour and most ( actually all of them ) of the rice field, the women are the people who works from 8 with 2 hours break during noon then work again until 5 in the eveing. No wages are paid since they are using the helping-each-other out system. They will go to thier friend's field and thier friends will help them back. It was nice, they chatted a lot. the only thing that made it so difficult is the sun. I can feel the heat coming right through my clothes.

. and JaNee is showing how to cut and pick  the  rice

My little fan club. These kids never work in the field and are curious with how thier mom pick the rice.

after a long day of rice's picking we always go have fun at the beach.

After I showed them fun way to jume they just can't stop,
