Let the adventure begin....Phnom Penh, Cambodia

a trip by Robyn Donaldson
From: September 18th 2011
Until: November 20th 2011

From September 2011 til November 2011, I will be volunteering through Projects Abroad in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. I will mostly be teaching English, but plan to learn as much Khmer as I can along the way, and emerse myself in the culture. Also plan to catch up with various contacts I have up there, and with Allan (my tour leader from my previous trip)...........and hope to also hook (!!) up with the local Hashers (HH Harriers) for some fun, running, and contact with expats. Should be an absolute blast. Looking forward to drinks on the balcony of the Foreign Correspondents Club, watching the mightly Mekong River flow by.......and the crazy traffic below. Bring it on !!
