In Timor-Leste playing at a local well. Barefoot and carefree, their laughter fills the air as water flows from the old pump, offering relief from the tropical heat. The young boy’s smile radiates happiness while his companions eagerly splash and rinse themselves in the cool stream. The weathered walls and humble surroundings contrast with the pure, unfiltered delight of childhood, highlighting the resilience and spirit of the local community. It’s a heartwarming scene of everyday life, where even the simplest resources create moments of joy.
