PESO:

We visited a school in the slums of Dhaka founded by a fashion designer
named Roxie.  She and her friends pay for the teacher and supplies and
provide uniforms for the kids.  Kids all come from the slum neighborhood
and have to keep their grades up to remain in the school:

and continue until the end.  Light in the tiny, metal building was terrible
and I can only imagine how it would get in the summer but the kids were all
enthusiastic and talented.  They have no desks but sit on the floor and use
their backpacks as desks.

If you go back further there are photos from an abandoned 15th century town
called Panam:

And after that, craftspeople from a fair we went to:

In other words, I have been busy editing.  Comments greatly appreciated.
