Martyn over at Beyond the Mango Juice had a great post the other day,   Off Road in Thailand, that really struck a note with me. Rural Thailand is really an amazing place if you’re in the right frame of mind and getting lost on the back roads of rural Thailand can be an almost zen like experience.

My last trip I helped out with the family rice fields and I learned a lot about what the rural Thai families do to sustain themselves. Most of the family fields are just behind their house but they own a few fields about 4 miles away so that meant taking to the open road on the trusty tractor. I had my camera with me so I decided to take some ” on the road” pictures as we finished hauling our last few loads of manure.

I never really thought about posting these pictures until Martyn’s post reminded me just how much I missed being in Nakhon Phanom and how beautiful the back roads can be. So, Martyn these photo’s are dedicated to you. I call this gallery ” Rural Thailand as viewed from a tractor by a falang”
