What is 'daily life' to a merchant in the markets of Thailand? How do they understand, feel and perceive our bias on their culture? The answers to those questions are only able to be given by the subjects of the photographs. We can only visit their land, experience their culture,, engage with the people, and capture the moments of our interest in photographs that we can view for a lifetime. At least for our lifetime, we can imagine what the daily life is like for a merchant of Thailand.
