Better late than never I assume...🤔 (Thankfully your in my autovote 👏)
Damn what an MANIQ adventure you had there with the tribe. Must have been a magical experience! Makes me realize again how important networking is to get things done and make dreams become true. Good decision to not take pictures the first day, because the ones you show us here are awesome. people do look so calm and busy with doing their daily things.👍
They do get support by people like Nok - The Farmer and also the government tries to protect them and letting them live the life they choose.
Good to read about this that even the government is behind the choice from the people to live their own life.
Yooooooooooooo @guchtere! Nice to hear from you buddy!
Yeah it indeed was a magical experience. Something very different to all other trips I've done so far.
And yes, networking is everything. Without the connections I would have never been able to visit this place. But that's something what always brings us forward - Connecting with others.
Cheers! :))
Are there any more trips like these in your agenda? As you already have the connections probably 😉
Wow, this is sounds like a truly life-changing experience! Thank you so much for sharing it with us Chris. Amazing post full of stunning photos. Top notch report.

I can totally relate to how you're feeling that moment. It was how I felt when I first saw this certain tribe here in our town. I've always been interested in them since then. I wish I could finally find that time to visit their village and take photos/videos (with their permission of course) on how they spend their day. Glad you had this trip. I can feel your excitement and how much you enjoyed that experience from reading your post. Your photos are full of life as always. Stay safe, and cheers to more fascinating trips! =)
Thank you so much for your comment! It definitely was exciting as it is so fascinating to see a world outside of the norm. It really brought me back to think more about the basics of life.
Thanks :))
Hi worldcapture,

Whoa! Thank you very much @curie and supporters :)) Highly appreciate it ! :))
Awesome, love the dedication and persistence you had in covering the tribe. I especially loved the pictures of the dogs (animal lover here) and seeing people in their natural way of life.

Thank you very much @coquiunlimited - Highly appreciate that you took the time to read this article.
And yes, there were a lot of dogs up the mountain living with the tribe :))
Thank you so much for sharing this. I think I can imagine how you must have felt beeing there. An experience of a lifetime. When I was a teenager there were still unknown tribes around the world that had not been visited by the "civilized" world. My first experience with "natives" of a country, was a stay at a Sioux Indian reservation in South Dakoka, USA in 1974! That's how I stated my interest for traveling and discovering our diverse planet. I think we have a lot to learn from people living much more in harmony with our earth. Great reading, which I enjoyed very much :) Ulla
Hi Ulla :))
Thanks for your beautiful comment. Your experience with the Sioux Indian sounds very exciting as well. And I agree, there is so much out to learn for us.
Thanks! Chris
Great story, of course i did not know this tribe but it is always interesting to see how smaller and isolated communities live. Amazing photos also:)

but dude this is such an amazing post, this guy got to go post with a remote secret negroid tribe in south thailand, amazing they are african but live THAAAt far away, and he gottehior permission fo cours ebut yeah thsi reminds me of STEEM TRIBES and also, its already liek over $30 on trending thanks to Steem Press i think but dude its a perfect anthropology post for steemstem or stemsteem or whatever
So cool how he didnt show teh exact location so you would have to go there to find them. There are all sorts of ACTUAL tribes of people who could and SHOULD learn about steem and steem engine, its not like they should be "saved" from white man tech its too late they already use it and its no white tech its built by asians nowadays its earth tech and its actually a GREAT idea to be like the UN, and go around, give free scholarships to some of these remote iisolated tribes, to help them actually keep their culture alive, ... i had this idea years ago but smt and communities never came out well, now it can happenb
the new steemit inc delegation and SPS can provide funding to pay the ENG fees to create TRIBES for these people in remote areas, not ironically using teh word tribe, im serious.... its a good idea and it can get major funding from the UN and NGOs and World WildLife Fund and all sorts of Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation money can come in to help fund Steem Engine Tribes for REAL HUMAN tribes, to keep the cultures of endangered peoples alive, via cryptocurrency,
Excellent. You really captured their daily life. Move over National Geographic make room for @worldcapture.
The Maniq are, indeed, a very special and unique tribe. I've lived here in Northern Thailand for 15 years after a year down south to begin and yes, have experienced much of what you have seen, felt and tasted.
When you come up this way again (I'm based in Chiang Mai and Mae Sariang) give me a shout and I can connect you to some of the local Karen sub-tribes who exist foraging in the mountains along the border. I'm working with the Karen people to build an organic social enterprise that builds on their forest knowledge and supports their indigenous way of life. I speak fluent Thai, have a truck of my own and would be more than happy to show you around up here.
Your images are stunning. And yes, this is what I call #mythailand
So much beauty and culture and diversity here. No much natural wealth, harmony and indigenous knowledge.
Be in touch when you're next "in the neighbourhood".
Hi @aremislives!
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!
That sounds amazing! I actually planed to go up to Chiang Mai to travel a bit around for a few days soon. I also thought about visiting the Karen sub-tribes (Long neck, right?)
The project you are doing sounds amazing and I would be super interested to see it!
Again, thank you very much for taking the time and reading this report.
Let's stay in contact! :))

What a great experience! You were lucky to find someone who brought you there. It must feel truly inspiring and magical to meet a people from a tribe deep in the jungle. I can imagine that they are so different to us and that it feels refreshing to be among them. I love your pictures and the way you showed their normal life. I also had to smile when I read that the husband of the leader is becoming a film star :) BUT I hope that they will keep their identity as long as possible. It's nice to hear that they didn't like 'our' life and returned back to the jungle..
Thank you for sharing and have a lovely day!
Thanks for stopping by @delishtreats! Oh yeah I'm pretty sure that they will keep their identity as they choose the way they do :))
Thanks :))
