- Am loving Phnom Penh more and more. It’s way more developed and liveable than I was expecting. It also seems like everyone is excited to be here, both Khmer and foreigners. Just saying… may want to return.
- Had a day off but spent much of the morning sorting out Haiti details. Deb is there now administering exams. I’ll be doing the same thing come April, and we’ll both be there for the September exams. The first year is always the hardest!
- When I finally got out of the house my options were Toul Sleng (museum about Khmer Rouge) or hotel pool. I chose sunbathing over genocide. Does that make me a horrible person?
- Met up with some Couchsurfers and got into an intense (and awesome) conversation about freedom, choices, stability, life, etc. Expats are deep.
