Market in Luang Namtha

Walking around the market in Luang Namtha before the long journey back to the USA - via Vientiane, Bangkok and London.

Today, the TOT participants are facilitating the business basics training in two villages along the Road 3 that takes us from Luang Namtha to Vieng Phou Kha. The landscape is gorgeous: mountainous, with small valleys with bright green rice paddies.

Aujourd'hui, les participants à la formation de formateurs animent la formation de base en petits commerces dans deux villages situés le long de la route No 3 qui nous mène de Luang Namtha à Vieng Phou Kha. Le paysage est magnifique: montagneux, ponctué de petites vallées avec des rizières d'un vert éclatant.

 Vieng Phou Kha:
