Hello dear friends! I am still at my brotherโ€™s house, but I will soon go to Siem Reap next week to visit my sisterโ€™s house and visit Angkor Wat. Today my sister-in-law winnowed the rice.

She puts the rice in a bamboo basket and waits for the wind to come.

When there is wind she winnows the rice. If the grain has rice, they will fall, and if they it does not have rice grain, it will fly through the air.

Then she put the rice and clean it again with the โ€œchang-eyโ€made from bamboo.

Then she threw away the weeds. If people harvest rice by hand, they have to use this method to clean the rice. These are the ways we have been doing it since our ancestors.

Nowadays, they do not use it much because they like to harvest rice with a machine, and it is easier than before. But less money because the cost of renting a harvester is expensive and the price of rice is cheap.

Jackfruit is my husband favorite fruits. Itโ€™s so delicious and sweet. When I eat it it makes me miss my husband so much.

My sister is scratching a coconut for making food.

It's something we made from our ancestors for coconut scratching. The people in the city stopped using it a long time ago but itโ€™s still popular for people in the countryside.

This is my sister, she lives in Battambang near the Khmer-Thai border. She came to visit me two days ago. We wake up early in the morning and light a fire to talk and have fun.

Lovely to see you having a great time with your brothers and sisters.

We also still have the same method of grinding coconut in our place but most of the time we just buy them already shredded from the market.

Yes, I have a really fun time with my brother and my sister. Here they just do it by themselves but in the cities people just buy them from the market.

The olden doesn't gets old sister. This is where I came from. Fresh air, clear view with tons of stars during all time and fire woods cooking too. Please update us about current ang kor wat sister โ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธ because I've been missing it so much ever since I visited almost 10 years ago ๐Ÿ˜…

Why not go back then :) ?

This is a wonderful view of village. Especially the scene of rice flying in the field is really amazing. These scenes of fishing with nets in the pond highlight the real beauty of the village. You have beautifully captured some of the most beautiful views of the village. Thanks

These are the normal lives of the villagers in the countryside. Thanks a lot for your nice words. Have a good weekend.

How nice getting to see your family like this! I am sure you have missed them so much! I know you miss Justin, but, this is such a unique opportunity!

How does it feel to be home again!??

That's a pretty simple and effective technique to separate the rice.
Great shots, as always, the kids look quite happy! ๐Ÿค—

Yes, they are so happy! Thank you my friend for your visit and comment ๐Ÿ˜Š.

Love how you captured the authenticity of their daily life! Really love seeing photos like these because it depicts a story๐Ÿ˜

I'm glad you liked it. I like writing about real life everyday, but my writing is not good because I do not know much English and my grammar is not very good too. Thank you for your feedback.

The place was beautiful. And here's another thing, we also do that here as what I have said on my past replies. And your right it's better to do hands on than renting a machine. It can lessen our expenses.

And about the fresh veggies. It is indeed yummier than those on the market. Because when it fresh,it's crunchy once you eat it. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š

Yes, itโ€™s right! Thank you for your feedback. Have a wonderful weekend.

Make me remember the feeling of my young age when people of my village made the same.

wow.. amazing, very nice indeed living in the village. the air is still very fresh and not too much pollution. my mother used to grate a coconut with the same coconut grater that your sister has. now that tool is very hard to find in our area

ย 3 years agoย ย 

Oh really, here, coconut scraps like this are still on sale in the market, but not as many people use them as before. Thank you for your comment.
