Burma (Myanmar)

The golden country. A country full of treasures, with its countless pagodas, stupas, monasteries, stunning landscapes, colors, gold and gem mines... But the main and real treasure is its people - the nicest people in Asia, if not in the world! People with their simple traditional everyday life and buddhist dhamma* lifestyle, convinced that more you give, more you get, with their big smiles and their innocent curiosity. It's a country that steals your hart. Unforgettable...

Nobody understands how the hell they've been so unlucky with the present political situation. But they know: it's only a tinny fragment of time in the whole eternity...


ps: *for those who've never heard of dhamma, please check the vipassana web page. Highly recommended!
