India Hampi

In hampi there are many kids, playing, running, laughing,
they all want pencils for their schools,
this girl just casually came
walking out of the house with a big knife

Old Buddhist Temple Statues, Galle, Sri Lanka



In Galle, Sri Lanka, is a store which sells vintage
Buddhist Temple Statues,
made of wood, mostly with bladdering paint.
We went to this store two times in the 5 weeks
we where in Sri Lanka,
and this statue got sold for 6000 Dollars
by an American Man
who would ship it to his home in America.

Peruvian Embroidery Skirts


Love the colors & the patterns

Huyancayo Hill Station, Peru, Knitted Cardigans

 This is still one of my favourite photo's,
she was such a charming and sweet lady,
she felt totally confident posing
 
Everywhere in Peru you see lady's with cardigans made
from soft Alpaca, often with a matching sweater below.
This sales lady holds the whipping cords
for the whipping ceremony

Market Street style, towels, plastic bags, beeny's & traditional skirts, Bandarawela in Sri Lanka

Such a lovely friendly lady
Sri Lankan streetstyle
Colors & materials
Winter fleece with bright coloured paisley,
mind the fluorescent orange hair elastic
Vintage 70's glasses & tulband
I like this silhouette,
traditional skirts combined with a hoody
Vintage scarves & patterns
Again that silhouette, skirt, shirt & loose beeny
I love the fabric & color combination,
her smile and that mint colored towel
