19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Bajau homeland

The Bajau, known as sea gypsies, have no country, but their lives are peaceful and cozy. Their gauga-framed wooden huts on the clear waters, children playing in the shallow sea, and the faint smoke and aroma of cooking floating out of the huts, blend in with the blue sky and white clouds and its reflections.
