Another friendly Thai monk at the Anne Frank House

Amsterdam,

Another friendly Thai monk at the Anne Frank House today where, by the way, my little one man Mandala street enterprise is going sky high, who was quite willing to let me do his portrait though his southern Thai was nearly incomprehensible to my northen Isan Thai trained Farang ears...so getting Nit Noi personal info on my subject's life was difficult if no nigh...no words of Queen Victoria's English didn't fascilitade things much...

Still...Khop Khun Khap for your prescious monkhood time Phom Puen...

kitegypsy what's with all the travelling monks? do they get sent abroad or are they just tourists?

heraclio there are only two Thai temples in thwe whole of Holland despite the sheer number of young Thai ladies marrying mostly elderly European males and who have a serious religious need, one of these temples is in a small village just north of Amsterdam...

these temples are also used for accomomdation purposes for travelling monks, I guess the use the opportunity to visit Amsterdam anasd its attractions.
