I stayed with the Karen hill tribe family in mountain village of Thailand and I had the honor of being invited to a traditional Karen Hill Tribe wedding ceremony. To my knowledge; The tribal people on the Thailand-Myanmar border particularly tend to keep this kind of event comparatively private.
And with that being said I would feel wrong if I don’t give you a little bit of the context on how I was invited to their wedding in the first place.
My relationship with this hill tribe village, together with the people here starting from
“The boredom of Chiang Mai City”
Nothing wrong with the city itself. But just as time passed by; I started to feel a bit too comfortable, meanwhile I was satisfied with the city and ready to explore something new and unknown.
So I decided to take a trip to somewhere remote and rural; here in Nongtao village - resided by Karen tribal people;
This is where I met newfound friend : P’ Nonchai
During 3 days of hanging out, it was…. tiring yet fulfilling - my life mainly involves following him around observing, learning, sharing experience, and helping him out as he takes care of his elephants, that’s how we connect and build the friendship
Then, on the day of saying goodbye
He asked if I would like to visit again for his brother's wedding ceremony happening in about 2 weeks.
That’s the starting point of me tagging along P nonchai, his friend, his cousins - having a wonderful local experience. Which gives me a better sense of this unknown side in Thailand.
