No words are need for this post, but who are we kidding.  I can't not talk - I need tell you what is going on or how I am feeling at the time...so I will try to keep my words to a minimum.

Look closely - this woman is hold her IV bag up while riding on the motorbike.

A common sight. Children learn to hold on at an early age.

Fishing

In the city. Cambodian law - the driver must wear a helmet. Others on the bike are not required to wear helmets.

Cows are more common than dogs in Cambodia.

I become very sad and humbled when thinking of this market..... As we were walking through I heard a baby crying, I looked over and saw his Mom holding him.  I looked closer and noticed he was hooked up to an IV. As I looked even closer I notice this was a clinic or hospital of sorts.  There were many sick people, some had curtains around them, some had cots, some just had plastic chairs.  The clinic looked very much like this store.  Dirt floor, no electicity, flies everywhere and the temperature is in the 90's. It was at this is the moment I decided I want to come back to Cambodia
on some sort of mission trip.  I don’t know what I can do to help, but I am sure there is something.

I would really like to hear your feedback...Are you enjoying this trip to Cambodia?  Did any of the pictures strike you, pull at your heartstrings or did you whiz right past them?  What was your favorite?  Do you want to see more pictures of daily life in Cambodia?

Love the pictures and want more. I always wanted to join the Peace Corp before I was married. These pics inspire me and I would love to join you if you take that missionary trip. Thanks for sharing your amazing experience.

I think your Cambodia trip is just great. You are an excellent tour guide. Keep 'em coming, I say. I love the daily life pictures. The temples are great too. I like how you mix it up a little bit--people pictures one day, temple tour the next. In this sequence, I'm digging the hat picture. And the two little boys fishing too.

I just went through the blog--just awesomeness. What type of books does the English teacher need/want. I'd love to send some over.

I love the cows, but I have to say my favorite pic was the mom reaching back to hold on to her baby! It goes to show no matter what your culture, race or financial situation, moms are the same everywhere! I would love to do a mission trip over there too!

    Hi, I'm Trish, the writer, creator and photographer of this blog.  I started this blog for 2 reasons, 1 - When I found out we were moving to Korea back in 2008 I was a little freaked out and started scouring the internet for information on Korea. At that time there wasn't much out there so I am doing my part in helping families across the world not be so freaked out when it comes time to move to Korea.  The 2nd reason I started this blog was to help stay connected to family members back in the states.  Today it is so much more that.
    I hope you enjoy our journey.

    Are you moving to Korea?  Do you have questions, concerns?  Are you freaking out?   Freak out no further -  click the button to ask a question.  I'll do my best to answer open and honestly.
    Moving to Korea?
