In Bangladesh, one of the world's most crowded countries, life can't help but spill out onto the street. Barbers in the northern town of Bogra set up shop on the sidewalk with just a chair, a mirror, an old rag and a set of razors; men can get a shave and a haircut for pennies.

One morning in the Vietnamese town of Chau Doc, located near the Cambodian border, I rented a motorbike so that I could spend a day leisurely puttering past hamlets and fields in the surrounding countryside. When I came upon these kids -- they had just spent the day in the fields with their parents and were now on their way home -- we smiled and laughed at the enjoyable sight we were to each other...something we never could have done had we been rushing by in automobiles.
This Israeli traveler is enjoying a beer and the beach on the Thai island of Ko Phangan, famous for the monthly Full Moon Party which draws thousands of revelers from around the world. While that night of the month can get a little congested and crazy, all other days look much like this.
Malaysia celebrated 50 years of independence in 2007. It was also a year that saw a heavy push by the Ministry of Tourism to increase the number of visitors to the country.
Each month during the night of the full moon, up to 10,000+ visitors from around the world descend on a quarter-mile stretch of beach on the Thai island of Ko Phangan. In addition to music, dancing, and monstrous amounts of alcohol, the carnival like atmosphere of the party includes a fair amount of body paint, illustrated by the travelers in this photograph.
