MONOMAD: Typical Acehnese Capped Boy

Three boys were sitting in a paddy field, their movements indicating that they were talking about something and occasionally joking about it. Their gestures imply that they are discussing future plans, more practical plans to utilize the rice fields. LOL, just my thoughts 😀.

They accompanied me to a relative's residence in the interior of North Aceh last weekend. Those are my nephews, the sons of @TeukuMukhlis.

It's undeniable that riding a bicycle is a very enjoyable activity for almost all children. It was a bicycle belonging to a relative's child, and of course, it's a bone of contention among them.

The oldest son of them wore a typical Aceh cap, and I directed him to behave like an old man in Aceh villages. Sit comfortably while drinking coffee , lifting one leg to support your elbow. He drank my coffee until his glass was empty 😃.

He likes my skullcap, and he wants to have it, but I can't fulfill my nephew's wish because that skullcap is an ethnographic item collection, can be classified as an antique, and is identified as having been made in the 19th century. The inside is woven with rattan sticks, and the outside is wrapped with small checkered cloth motifs in yellow, red, green, and black.
