Villagers on the way to market

All along the roads at all times of day, you see villagers walking to market and from market. They are hoping to be able to sell a few things and be able to buy the items needed that day, usually food. Many carry a chair with them that they use to sit on at market or while doing the wash at a dirty river.

Most villagers walk carrying huge amounts on their head. Some are lucky to have a donkey, a bicycle (that has to be carried on the muddy parts of the road), or if extremly lucky, a motorcycle.

It is common to see chickens, goats, pigs, and cows roaming freely along the road side. Many goats and pigs have a v-shaped wood piece around their neck to keep them from eating the crops or entering the doors of the homes.
