Sinchai Gave Us Crabs!




This man, the amazing Sinchai, planned our days with a succession of delightful adventures, involving lagoons in caves and an unsuccessful du-gong (manatee) quest. He also gave us crabs,

in exchange for a sign we painted for him.




Learning to recharge joy, we opened up new spaces between moonrises and luscious deeply inspiring sunsets in this remote Thai fishing village.



Warm water lapped at our doorstep on a deserted beach while moonlight bathed singing fisherman hard at work.

We were told the village of Chao Mai, a fishing village and port of Thai sea gypsies, contained many secrets, mysteries, and stories. However, the man who told us this excused himself to converse with other people and then we failed to find him again. So what can we do but believe him about the secret mystery stuff?
