The village was famous for the rice terraces. And they attracted many tourists from all over the world. So I thought the children living in this village was accustomed to meet foreigners.

Yet these children I met on the outskirt of the village came to me without any hesitation. And they got excited themselves when they noticed my camera. They started to dance in front of me. It looked like a welcome rite for me.
