So while this attempt at blogging has been much more successful than my first go, I have definitely failed at providing a something everyday. There are a few reasons for this...
1. lack of internet access at times
2. not owning my own computer
3. I'm busy! (leading programs is quite time consuming)
4. laziness
I'll leave you to figure out which is the main reason... one hint... it's number is divisible by 4.
So for an update as to what I've been up to... the From the Ground Up program finished at the end of July. I then had one week in Phnom Penh and am currently finishing up a week running a program called the Cambodia Orphanage Project back out in Kampong Cham province. I have pictures to add from the last 2 weeks but lack the energy to post them now (my camera cord is in another room, it would be a lot of work).
I only have 4 more days left of working in Cambodia. I have mixed emotions towards this. I have really enjoyed my time in Cambodia and am sad to leave it and the friends I have made here. On the other hand, I am about to go traveling around Thailand for 3 1/2 weeks, so I can't really complain. I am currently planning on visiting Bangkok, Chiang Mai and some of the islands in the south. And then returning to NY on September 5th. Not a bad way to end my summer in SE Asia.
So, I will try to post more, but can't promise much. Well, I promise I will post a lot in September... but try my very hardest to throw some Thailand pictures up as I travel.
Now to get some sleep so I can enjoy my last days in Cambodia which will include one more day working at the orphanage, a crazy dance party with the Khmer kids and Rustic students, a boat ride around the floating villages and crocodile farms near Siem Riep, a visit to Siem Riep's night market, one last sunrise at Angkor Wat and a night in a city I have grown to love, Phnom Penh!
