Pictures from around the neighborhood

I lived with my parents and my new sisters for four months when I first moved to Cambodia back in September. 

Here is a sneak peak of photos from the neighborhood of my parents' house.

Go here to see the rest of the photographs. The street in front of their house is all paved now. 

I now live in a house with three friends about 15 minutes away further in the city. My parents' house is borderline countryside (as you can see).

When Dentists Have to Use a Second Language

Through a program I work with, I have been going to the dentist with a group of kids as a chaperone. At the end of their dental visit, I collect their paperwork and hand it back to the front desk.

One girl handed me her form and my eyes glanced over her medical history which read: 

Leukemia. Anemia.

I'm glad they caught that mistake.
