Sea Gypsies

Posted by Jennifer Bichara on

Bajau Laut or Bajo are marine nomads thought to have come from the Philippines, who for centuries have lived their lives at sea. With there dugout canoes, they ply the ocean between Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia. Worlds expert free divers as you can see in the picture.

I love how the kid was playing with the shark. Amazing!
