Two days ago I visited a village that was tucked away in the mountains along the Laos border.  It was 1.5 hrs away along a very windy road that went through a couple of mountain ranges.    This place was the most remote Thai Lue village I’ve been to.   Since the mountains were so close by, cell phone coverage was non-existent.

After arriving I met a man who was very helpful in telling me about his locale.   Most of the people there were farmers.   Lychee and Corn were the main cash crops.    It was a poorer community (at least compared to our area) with no walls or fences marking the borders of each property.
