Artisan Info: Thank you, everyone, for helping me to do what I love to do most! Best wishes to you! Sa-was-dee-krab. I'm Yodchai Saelor, or 'Jo.' I'm from the hill tribes. My people were the Lisu, and I was born in 1981 in northern Thailand. When I was just a little boy, I lived in the forest with my grandparents, my mother and my two sisters. We all respected the spirits as our religion. We worshipped our ghosts who remain in some object, and we place the object on an overhead shelf we inherited from our great grandparents. My father is a man from town. He separated from my mother when I was just a baby and I saw him only once. But I never talked with him, because the first time I saw him I felt afraid and ran into the forest. When I came back, I found that he had already gone. That was the only time he came to visit us. My house in the forest was just somewhere to sleep. There was no running water or electricity. It took half a day to reach the Lisu tribe's village.
