Sangay chews betel nut and lime wrapped in a leaf, which, from long-term use, has discolored her teeth and gums. Shingkhey Village, Bhutan. Nalim and her daughter Sangay care for the children and work in their mustard, rice, and wheat fields. Namgay, who has a hunched back and a clubfoot, grinds grain for neighbors with a small mill his family purchased from the government. From Peter Menzel's Material World Project.
