Green chilli paste being made from scratch. This was hard work, especially given the weight of the pestle.

Actually, it is quite unladen compared to some, but I like the shot. We assume that is the man's wife, and note there is ample space for some children on there with them.

In Vietnam, street food is only authentic street food if you have to sit on tiny plastic stools with your knees up around your ears.

On the streets of Hanoi, Mark and Monica on their typical Vietnamese family vehicle. Monica looks so well, really healthy. It was special to drop in on them so close to such an exciting occasion.
