It is so great to be back in China. I didnt realize how much I
missed it here. I have been back for a few days and have been
enjoying having not much to do and being able to relax and spend time
with my team. I have not been able to send many emails or update
because my computer is currently broken. So if you are wondering
why I have not been in communication, that is why. Hopefully I
will get someone to look at it soon-everything has been closed lately
because of the Chinese New Year. It has been fun with the new
year because everyone has been setting off fireworks all the
time. Its great.
Cambodia was a great time. We got to see some truly incredible
things (Angkor Wat) and had some very strange traveling
experiences. We spent over 22 hours on buses, 3 days traveling
back to China from Cambodia (way too much time in airports) and learned
about some of the unbelievable history of Cambodia. It was an
amazing time but also challenging-definitely the most third world
country I have ever been to. There was so much poverty and
victims of land mines and just the effects of the economy. I dont
really have the time to write a ton on here but if you want to know
more, send me an email or give me a call! (There are free minutes
on skype right now to china-check it out and give me a call on my
landline or cell phone).
