During a train stop on my way from Bodhgaya to Darjeeling, India, i saw these kids do a little act for money. They look maybe 5-7 years old and homeless. I wish I had some more background on their situation. Maybe they are orphans or maybe they have some adult sending them out to work during the day. Maybe they are on their own, living and working at the train station.

In the beginning, the little boy puts his body through a metal hoop. The girl then balances a plastic water bottle on her head. The whole performance was very simple and unimpressive.

Look how unmotivated the kids are. The black marks on the boy's face were magic marker or some kind of pen. At first I thought they might be hairy nevi, but they weren't.
