krama scarves





What a nice surprise today! Had lunch with Anders Jirås, photographer friend who moved to Pnom Penh, Cambodia some months ago. He is on a short visit in Göteborg and brought me presents, look!

Cambodian kramas, the most useful cotton scarves you can think of.
My potter colleague on the photo wears it right, photo from a few years ago.

Anders photos from Phnom Penh, besides the beautiful dancers look at:
Amazing Panorama of the Brayuvangs Pagoda
Kite festival

lovely scarfs; lovely fun sounds; had a few Cambodian students--one actaully cooked something for me, and the stories they would tell! So generous.

Have a grace-filled work and day.

Hello! I don't know many khmer words, "klang" means both music and sound. Hope your day are good too!

Bibbi said...

no, mansuetude, it is fully released today, dancing in the sky. At least here :)

mansuetude said...
