It’s not your traditional Valentine’s Day imagery, yet these captures from our recent visit to Buddha Park — just outside of Vientiane, Laos — seemed so Cupid Day’esque.

Wishing you a splendid Valentine’s Day!

Hi! My name is Tricia Mitchell. I delight in telling stories about my slow travels through more than 65 countries. Some of my highlights have included sharing meals with locals in Armenia, Cambodia, and Tunisia; sipping sparkling wine with French cousins in Alsace; milking goats in a sleepy Bulgarian village; and training with a Japanese mine-clearance team in Laos. My husband, Shawn, and I are based in France’s Loire Valley.

      Thank you, Victor! Speaking of holidays, I’ve been enjoying your Chinese New Year celebration imagery from NYC. We’re spending Valentine’s Day in Manila, where we’ve just arrived from Bangkok. I was surprised to see the day celebrated in Bangkok and here in Manila: homemade crocheted roses for sale by one vendor in Bangkok and many real bouquets being toted by the local Filipino schoolgirls from their beaux. :)
