At this time, the photobook project Kinh Wave: Làn sóng phát triển (The waves of development) has been completed and is in the preparation stage for release. This is one of many small stories I collected during the process of preparing the Kinh Wave book. These stories were not mentioned in the book, but they have brought me many emotions, so I decided to share them on my personal blog, please follow.
One day wandering around in Sín Chải village, I came across two babies standing waiting for their parents, and only after asking did I know that the whole family was preparing to go up to the high stream to wash clothes. I immediately followed along and recorded this cute little story.
