Finally, I have made it to Cambodia. After half a day of traveling (by car) I arrived in Siem Reap where Neary Khmer is located. On the way up, I traveled mostly through the countryside and small villages that will be like the villages I will be working with. As of now, my only job is to read different reports that Neary Khmer gave me to read so that I have a basic understanding of the different types of projects Neary Khmer has been working on.

I had also forgotten to thank the McKeen Center at Bowdoin College where I received one of the few Global Citizens Grants. The grants are given to Bowdoin College students who seek to volunteer with small, lesser known non-profit organizations. There weblink can also be found
