In the middle of Tonlé lake in Cambodia, affluent of the World famous Mekong river, the daily boat going from Battambang to Chong Kneas stops by in a floating house after an average of six hours trip —I said ‘average’ because the duration of the journey depends on the extension of the lake at that time, it can vary from 4 to 7 hours. That’s why all the houses in that area are floating, they can move according to the rainfalls without risk of flooding—. In that house, there is a family living thanks to the US Aid.
Healthy US Aid. With such aid, they prefer to sell it to the unintelligent westerners addicted to trash food, and buy local food. Lots of rice and dishes like fish cooked with coconut milk and banana, all eaten with the hands.
Don’t you think now that our lives are too complicated, just because we did it this way? I gave to one of the kids an origami ‘comecocos’. Uncomplicated, inexpensive, local produced and enjoyable, like their food.
