Our group is here in Cambodia now! After LONG LONG LONG layovers and flights, I've made it alive and am slowly surviving the heat here! Non stop sweat though!
So far we have made it to visit Youth Resource Development Program, that offers capacity building and different courses to youth, KHMERARA, an organization that works with sex workers, people with HIV/AIDS, women and children, LICADHO, a national human rights organization, that actually the person we were supposed to meet with couldn't be there because she was busting her employees out of jail that had been arrested that morning for protesting, Youth for Peace (where my week long internship will be with) that works on skill building and peace education with high school/college aged students, tomorrow we go visit the ambassador and the UN office of human rights!
Our bathroom, with the showerhead hanging right in the middle...interesting!
A lizard on the wall...I'm the only one that gets really freaked out by these, I can't sit in a chair by myself if one is on the wall next to me, I'm afraid its going to jump off at me...there are MUCH larger ones though than that pictured here.
Outdoor seating space at the Boddhi Tree Guesthouse.
A "tuk tuk" that we use to get around town...cheaper if you have a group to go in it, by yourself, the moto's are cheaper, but I haven't been brave enough to ride one yet. (Jon, like the shirt?!)
Once I figure out to upload video, I will, but these computers are SO slow not sure if I can, but I have a great one of the traffic here, and of some kids that sang for us!
Hope everyone got a chance to see the article in The Mirror!
