Thai art painting: The squid boat



" The boats are moored in a bay during the day. Preparations are always being made for the forthcoming night's hunt. Yet, these are the homes of families and work alone cannot sustain a family. The everyday faculties of life are all played out there on the decks and in the waters surrounding the floating home fleets. This gives new meaning to the idea of working from the home. It is said that it is not wise to bring work home but can the same be said of floating the home out to sea in order to work? Laundry is washed. Meals are prepared and eaten. Showers are taken. Naps are slept. Swims are swum. And laughter seems to abound especially from the children as is usually the case, is it not? " >www.thingsasian.com<
