I took this photo recently in Khlong Toey market. Jay Sim, as she is called by her customers, is a friendly street vendor who caught my interest with her dress and appearance.
She sells dim sum stuffed with the mix of shrimp and pork and ‘hoy tod kanom krok’ (crispy fried mussels with egg in hot pit) at 20 baht and 30 baht respectively.
She covers all of her body and face with cloth and only her eyes are revealed. The reason why she dresses like that is because exposed to the sun her skin gets itchy, or if smudged by oil.
Meeting locals makes your travels even more enriching. If you have interesting photos of such people and a memorable experience to share with other readers, email them to
pongpetm@bangkokpost.co.th The photos must be sent as jpeg files (at least 1MB in size), and the text as document files. Horizons reserves the right to select and publish the photographs.
