Same, Same, But Different...

In South East Asia, there is a very common saying that goes: “Same, same, but different.” It is a phrase used to basically show how something is SIMILAR to something back home, but is obviously very different (often in terms of quality, use, or looks).  The saying is commonly used by locals, tourists and expats alike. People wear the phrase on T-shirts and bags, and there are restaurants and guest houses that use it as a name.  In this section of my website, I use it to showcase images that I have taken over the years that are very similar or follow similar themes to one another, but are clearly embedded in different contexts.
