A day in the Lao life of Johannes Zeck
On the 25th of November 2016, we, Pauline and Kerstin, had the honour of following Johannes Zeck, the AfC/BHS project leader, everywhere for one day. We documented everything and decided to display this day in form of a “photo diary” so that you can partake in his exciting life, too. Please have a look:
