Maiga Throwback: Simple Life

Continuing posting of my old photos from my trip to Pulau Maiga. In this heartwarming moment, you see a mother standing with her child on a rustic kayu jetty, with the calm blue sea stretching out behind them. Angin sepoi-sepoi bahasa, peaceful vibes all around โ€” really feels like another world compared to our city hustle lah. The way theyโ€™re dressed, and with that simple rumah atas air nearby, you can tell theyโ€™re deeply connected to their roots and the natural way of life. This scene reminds us to slow down, take a deep breath, and appreciate those quiet, meaningful moments โ€” especially the bond between family, right in the middle of paradise.

Shot on Leica M6 – can’t remember what lens though!
