AKHA Hill Tribe Villages

We had the amazing experience of going to Laos. Tim and I knew little to nothing about Laos, other than it being under communist rule, and we were not sure what to expect but we did not expect what we experienced. The landscape was breathtaking,the food was incredibly good, and the people were a delight. We did not see any material wealth, roads were horrible, it was dusty and accommodation's were rustic, but what lacked in creature comforts was made up in generosity, kindness, and hospitality. We also felt VERY safe and felt our persons and our belongings were secure the entire time we were in Laos. We found there were many tourists in Laos, which we also did not expect. We feel blessed to have gotten to experience the people and places of Laos.

Have you ever done something, gone somewhere, met someone and had preconceived notions of what to expect. In those situations did you react to your surroundings according to your expectations or did you suspend your judgment and let the situation reveal itself on its own accord?
