the girl said thats uncle changs house, no real walls just like a sleeping platform above the ground.
he just liked living by himself, in great physical condition for his age about 70, only smoked the raw tobacco, and was vegetarian,drank mekong like a fish, the kids loved him, because of his storys of old lao warriors.

Its interesting stuff, one of the sisters and her daughter still live out there in the middle of nothing...we always visit and the stories start up with the mekong geting thrown down ..its an eye opener for sure, but always a good time, with little or nothing there is still things to laugh about.
My gf's cousin spends her days weaving silk for days on end...very little money for so much work.
