After I took the preceding photo, the young girl asked me to take one of her alone.
After I complied, she did something remarkable: she motioned me to bend down, then stood on her tiptoes
and planted a kiss on my cheek. That's never happened to me before, and it felt like a delightful coda
to my Indochina journey.
