Buddhist Monk in Vientiane Doing Some Grooming

Feb 6, 2013 by Daniel McBane 4 Comments

Saffron Robed Buddhist Monk

This Buddhist monk was sitting outside a temple in Vientiane, Laos and checking himself out in his little mirror for a good half hour. After a few minor adjustments, he seemed happy with what he saw. Who can blame him?

      I think he might be holding a pair of tweezers, but I can’t quite make it out in the picture.

          I did not know that. Are they not allowed to use blades or do they just prefer this method?

Welcome!

As the more astute among you may have guessed, my name is Daniel McBane. I've been traveling and working overseas for almost ten years now and have finally decided to document some of the strange, crazy or just plain funny encounters and observations from my travels. I've also added a travel guide section, figuring I should reward my four readers by providing at least something of use. Read more on my about page.
