Joss Cleland, Commando (September theme: What Matters to Me )

What matters most to me is experiencing other cultures and helping those less fortunate. This photo was taken at S.O.S Tabanan Orphanage in Bali. S.O.S Tabanan is a lesser-known orphanage and the kids don't get too many visitors, so my family naturally chose to visit it. Whilst financially supporting a child is important, it is just as important to connect and chat to the children. This little guy was nicknamed "Commando" as you can see on his shirt.....he rolled around everywhere playing as an army man. He munched away at the snacks I shared with him. He giggled and smiled when I took my camera out, his eyes glistening like glass. He was beaming.
