We had been traveling village by village in the north of Ethiopia in order to collect honey samples. In one of the villages we stopped by I have seen children playing football with a sewed ball. Once I took out my camera, they came and fought each other in order to be in the frame. And of course they didn't forget the ball.

During our visit to one of the villages in the state of Maharastra, I found this little girl enjoying herself too much while playing merry go round at the water-pump.
