The end of 2010 was a cold winter.

I had the opportunity to travel to a province in the northern region. For whatever reason it is impossible to go. When my friend asked me to go, I was forced to go and drive from Bangkok at 2:00 p.m., seeing that I would be able to continue driving until I reached Tak Province. I turned my watch and looked at the time and it was 2, almost 9:00 p.m.

Stopped at a gas station on the side of the road. Stretching the legs to rejuvenate them a bit would be great. A cold slap on the back here too.

There are two of us, my friends. It urged me to come along. Where is a person like me who rejects anyone? Ploy must come with it as well.

Heading forward to travel further. The cold air made his whole body shiver. When opening the window to receive wind from outside Song side road The place is completely dark and quiet with traffic. Occasionally runs in the park. Ended up at the destination, already half way into the night.

I'm completely exhausted. So he stayed and slept at a friend's house with him without hesitation.

In the morning we woke up quite late. Because I was tired from traveling last night. I got up from the bed where the owner of the house had set up a mosquito net to welcome visitors. Then walked down to say hello. I don't know the parents and relatives of my friend, when my friend secretly got out of bed. Before going to take a shower to cleanse the body and eat breakfast.

Northern style food Set aside and wait for the table to be full. Hot sticky rice Enough to relieve the cold. That meal, even though it was exotic, But it was delicious.

Until it was nearly noon. So we traveled to attend the funeral of my friend's elderly relative.

That's right, we came to the funeral, which was in the late afternoon. There will be a cremation ceremony.

Northern people like to cremate corpses in the village cemetery. has a tradition that is unique to him and burned like sludge. So my friends and I attended the funeral ceremony. Until it was finished, until evening.

The host therefore invited me to join all my friend's relatives for dinner.

It's normal. Naturally, there will be sitting in circles, talking amongst each other. Until the hosts brought fermented liquor to the guests who came to help at the event to drink and eat.

My good friend He invited me to join in the discussion with his male relatives.

Home liquor, wild liquor, brought at full capacity. It will definitely help to relieve the cold. As a visitor, I would not be able to avoid the generosity of the person who held the glass of liquor in front of me.

Geebb... Specially prepared liquor made by the villagers. that passes down the throat into the stomach The degree is very hot. I tried to cover everyone up with a smile. Suddenly, everyone who turned to look was laughing and having fun until I thought we were really at a funeral, haha.

My friend had reassured me from the beginning before traveling that the real uncle he respected and loved had passed away and couldn't help but come. Even though I didn't get to hear the prayers in time, it was still good.

You can talk to each other and ask about your concerns. I can't help but come back and tell the stories of those who have died. In the past it was not possible And it seems that the storyteller wants to convey this to the people in the drinking circle. Listen again

People like me really like it.
