Photos from Laos

Below are some photos taken over the last few days here in Laos. A project I've been spending a good bit of time on is a program working with young women (ages 13 to 25) who've been rescued from the trafficking industry. It's been a very powerful experience meeting with the girls/women.... more on these reflections later. Because of confidentiality's sake, you won't see pictures of the girls here. Instead, I thought I'd share pictures about daily life here in Laos. Enjoy!

Fresh, live frogs... I hear they're delicious, but I've never tried them.

Fresh water eel and crabs found in the hills.

Live crickets. You can actually hear them munching on the leaves!
