"Roland Barthes in his classic study of photography, Camera Lucida, uses two terms, punctum and studium, to descrube our reactions to photographs.

"The studium can be translated as what the photo represents in aesthetic and intellectual terms, wholly disconnected from our emotional response.

"The punctum can be translated as the wound of the photograph. It's both emotional and individual. The punctum for you might be different from my sense of the punctum in a photograph.

"It's a small detail that wounds us, a bou's crooked teeth in a photograph of smiling boys, a man shading his eyes from the sun in another."

--Robin Hemley, essay Lines that Create Motion, The Far Edges of the Fourth Genre

Laos was hard — isolating, frustrating, and at times deeply uncomfortable. But now that I’ve left, I miss the people more than anything. There’s a warmth there that stays with you, even when everything else is difficult.

Across the Border in Cambodia, Missing Laos

You know, when I lived in Laos, at times it was very difficult.

It looks like paradise — cheap beers, big screens, easy company. But every morning you wake up alone, a little more drained, a little more empty. Some places don’t take your money — they take your soul.

The Expat Illusion in: Cheap Beer and Lonely Mornings in Southeast Asia

These places can seem like heaven if you’ve never forged a path in your life and only worked and drank.
