dad's little helpers


Like the goats and pigs, the village kids are free-range, roaming around with their friends and siblings, unconfined and safe, with a neighbourly eye never far away.  When the building team were here last week, the kids often called in for a visit, a play in the sand, and if it was market day, a special treat from Mrs Sally, the tea lady.  These are the first generation to grow up with foreigners living nearby, and it is lovely to see them develop each season and gain confidence with the strange white folk in funny houses.

  1. Hi Sally
    I have just discovered your blogs through Carla Coulson and am really enjoying your imagery and writing. Oh, to have second home in Bali, still on the list at this stage. As an architect myself I am looking forward to following the progress of your villa and as a traveller your Italian images have me green with envy. I look forward to following your journey.
