Hi everyone, and sorry for taking so long to get started! Although most of you know, my plan is to be here in Siem Reap, Cambodia volunteering with children for 12 weeks (four of which have passed) before moving on to other regions of Cambodia and Asia for a following 2 or so months.

Great stuff
Hi Zoe Sounds like you're getting fully immersed in the whole thing. Your tales of locals looking after you and striking up friendships sound just so much like Vietnam. It's bringing back so many happy memories.

Great to read your news!
Hi Zoe, it's Angela here. We met at your place a few months ago. Your Mum sent me the link to your blog. It's a terrific read - try to keep writing, as hard as it is to find the time. It's great for your friends and family to read and also for you to look back on. I know you will have a fabulous time with your folks when they arrive next week. I look forward to hearing/reading all about it. Enjoy! Angela

hi Zoe, from Catriona
Hi Zoe-I meant to comment much sooner. Your mum sent me the link to your blog and I was fascinated to read what you have been doing. She and I had dinner last week and she told me about your time together O/S. I so admire what you are doing Zoe, I'm sure there are times when you feel homesick and a bit overwhelmed, but what an amazing experience for you. I'm sure you are doing some wonderful, helpful and important work. Keep it up-much love, Catriona
