A shot from my bedroom window.

I took this photo during my business trip in China. It was taken in front of a clothing factory in a small town near Xiamen. Their parents work there. Children have no other choice than to play around or in the factory. It was winter, not freezing but still cold. The factory was the worse one I’ve seen so far. It was small, dirty, with no heating. From the toilets a strong smell of piss was spread around the whole place.

We were very interesting to them. The whole time they were following us around and just before we left  I asked if I could take their photo. They were so happy and exited about it, jumping and sending me kisses. My face was also smiling and my hand was sending the kisses back to them. Didn’t want to ruin their moment. But inside, my heart was torn apart  by the slap of bitter reality we are living in.

Hello, hello:) I know it’s been a while… To start, happy New Year! Hope you’ve had great holidays:)

For three weeks I’ve been in China on a business trip… When I came back home, I’ve slept for a week and now I’m back!
