Hani child in door~ Mushroom village~Yunnan
Please meet one of the Hani minority children from the rice terraces of beautiful Yunnan. This child lives in a charming little house called “mushroom house” because his people were inspired by mushrooms to design these homes after many years of living in caves. In his home he has pigs, a water buffalo, chicken, ducks, cats, dogs, generations of family members and many colorful dried seeds and pumpkins. To go to school everyday, the children must walk down a valley and up a mountain, the journey takes more than an hour each way. Their smiles are guaranteed to melt your heart!
FYI: It was fun catching up going in reverse order … and then Day 1 did a great job of setting the table. 🙂
my heart is truly melted 🙂
Dedication to education—that’s something always positive to read about!
A lovely capture Mimo. It looks like a good month, so I hope I can keep up with it.
How fascinating – a mushroom house. Can’t imagine what it’s like living with all those animals in the home.
