点评:This experience was definitely life changing. Sun and his tribe are super welcoming. We were picked up at our hotel by Raj and on our way to where the remote tribe was located we were told about the Karen tribe. We then arrived and we were welcomed by Sun and the other elephant caretakers. We were taught the basic rules of how to take care and approach the elephants which are treated like a family member. We were taught their function in the past and nowadays and how important elephants are for this tribe. We fed them, cleaned them and interacted with them in the most ethical way. This tribe only works with very small groups to not disturb this gentle but quite easily scared animal. We were then given a lovely homemade meal by Nic - Sun's wife - and explored further how the Karen tribe lives and the role of the man and woman in this tribe.
I cannot underline enough how much I enjoyed this tour and you can see how happy they are to have you and share their culture with you.
翻译:这次经历绝对改变了我的人生。Sun和他的族人非常热情好客。Raj到我们酒店接我们,在前往这个偏远部落的路上,他向我们介绍了克伦族。抵达后,Sun和其他大象饲养员热情地接待了我们。他们教我们如何照顾和与大象相处,这些大象在他们眼中就像家人一样。他们还告诉我们大象在过去和现在扮演的角色,以及它们对这个部落的重要性。我们喂它们、给它们清洁身体,并以最合乎伦理的方式与它们互动。为了不打扰这些性情温顺但又很容易受惊的动物,这个部落只接待小规模的团队。之后,Sun的妻子Nic为我们准备了美味的家常菜,并进一步了解了克伦族的生活方式以及男性和女性在这个部落中的角色。
我无法用语言来形容我有多么喜欢这次旅行,你能感受到他们多么高兴能接待我们,并与我们分享他们的文化。
