A Walking Girl by Ryszard Wierzbicki
One thing that stands out when exploring the slums around Smokey Mountain in Manila is the number of children living there. I started my tour on a Friday morning, when children would normally be in school. Here, children were everywhere. Which is a sign that they did not attend any school at all. The photo above shows one such child wandering the streets.

A Fight by Ryszard Wierzbicki
The scene of the quarrel and fight unfolded before my eyes. Walking through the streets of the slums, I heard the sounds of some kind of brawl. I ran as fast as I could to see what was happening. It turned out to be a family quarrel that had led to a fight. The furious husband threw himself at his wife with his fists. Fortunately, he was pulled aside in time and it all ended with a few punches.

While visiting Vang Vieng in Laos I took a short trekking to the Tham Phapouae Cave. This is the view of Nam Song River from the entrance to the Cave.
