Souls of Bangkok: The Strong Senior

SOULS OF BANGKOK  Most 65-year-olds aren’t to be found hanging inverted from parallel bars on a typical afternoon. But Nhong is addicted. Since his late 50s, he’s been working out for two to three hours nearly every day in Lumpini Park, which he likes for its shade and calm.

Souls of Bangkok is a Coconuts series of street portrait photography inspired by Brandon Stanton’s Humans of New York. Every human has a story to tell, and we intend to share some from the millions of souls who call Bangkok home.
