Things the Burmese Do for a Living

First time in Yangon, Myanmar has so much to offer in terms of food, culture and lifestyle. Since I only started travelling actively last year, I would say Myanmar is a place like no other - in a good way, of course.

In my personal observation, I find this a very poor country but what amazes me is not their poverty, it's their resilience in making ends meet and live a life. When I saw the smiles on their faces, it means life goes on. Live it with a smile.

Glad to have a camera with me. Here's some of the stuff the Burmese do for a living.

On the street, Burmese sell all kinds of food. It's almost a market in its own rights.

Flowers for sale. So pretty and lovely.

I wasn't sure if they are really binding books. I saw tobacco on the desk.

Lovely pineapple themed cart. Must be the Burmese version of Rojak.

More preserved fruits here.

I really like this one. Betel leaf and fresh concoction of tobacco, I think. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Burmese are mobile and they move about. They can sell things anywhere. Here at the train station, a girl sits on the floor to sell fresh big oranges.

During my train ride, I must admit there is much to see. This one's selling food.

Peddler selling at the railway station.

Heading off a train, a peddler would hop on and off a train to sell whatever they have to offer. and frequently balancing their products and the bumpy train ride.
