A new broom
Rakhine,
Myanmar
(je moet deze open maken)
Mrauk U has limited elelctricity, her house and thin blankets may not offer much warmth during the chilly nights, her few cooking pots may never be full, her broom was her only household equipment. Yet every morning she and her women neighbours are out sweeping the streets of the village. I watched with admiration and thought how much I take for granted.
