I recently had the opportunity to finally hook up with one of Asia's best graffiti artists and someone who has completely crushed the city of Hong Kong.

Xeme, great guy and a very talented artist!

Check out more flicks of his work here:

Homeschool x 26: The Refugee Camp

I stumbled upon this doorway on the streets of Jaffna. It looked interesting so I decided to explore further. Behind the door, the building opened up to a vast expanse of people living in squatter like conditions. The residents told me it was a place for internally displaced people, a place they could live after the fighting had finished.

This guy was like the gate keeper. I had to get passed him and his buddy on the stairs to be able to really see what it was like inside.

The rooftop of the building and the old black board made an ideal location to teach the class.

Inside the place this was the typical sized room for an entire family.

The shared kitchen.

Another bedroom.

Lots of colors and interesting designs.

Ihsan, helped me out a lot this class. His English was pretty good, but his crowd control was even better.

The Class.

The Doorways of Sri Lanka

The doors throughout Sri Lanka gave a sense of character and individuality to each of the buildings. Since many of these buildings have been abandoned, going inside to explore further was a possibility and the interiors were highlighted by distinctive doorways and interesting shapes and colors produced by years of fighting and neglect.
