This is the outside of my house. I have lived here for twelve years. It has a small kitchen, bathroom, and living area.
Nong Phok
My House — The Inside
These are the kitchen and the living area. We also sleep in the living area.
Dogs
I have two dogs. The brown one is named Kamgeao. She is friendly with some people, but not with others. The white one is Silom. She bit a neighbor boy. Sometimes the neighbor boys yell at the dogs or throw rocks.
Mini Mart
Last year I opened a Mini Mart next to my home. It was hard work. After the construction finished, I painted the inside. Then I ordered the goods. I worked seven days a week. My customers are school children and people in the neighborhood.
Issan Food
The first one is called laab. It is beef with chilli powder, Thai herbs and vegetables🌶, peppermint, spring onion and parsley. You can eat the beef raw, or cook it.
We also eat fresh water fish…and bugs! The bugs we fry in water and salt.
Valentine’s Present
Last year, I got a MacBook Air for Valentine’s Day. I spend a lot of time learning to use it. I have spreadsheets on it for the cost of the Mini Mart goods and the money from the customers.
Local Market
I go to the market almost every day. It is on the way to my daughter’s school. I buy many kinds of vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers and cabbage. For meat, pork and chicken. Also grapes and melon. Sometimes I go there to sell vegetables from my garden.
