It's been a while I know..

Which makes it slightly harder to remember everything that's happened in the last 4 + months..

For the most part I've been living and working in Phnom Penh. I'm sharing a big house with 4 other people and working in a private school called American Pacific. The school only goes up to grade 6 so from 2 to about 16 but the grades are separated by ability rather then age so in Grade 6 I have a few 10 year old's as well as the older children.

We had the Water Festival which was amazing but ended in disaster..
I spent Christmas in Kampot with lots of friends and the New years in Sihanoukvil on the beach! both were amazing!

Polly's been here for the last month which has been great! Lots of fun in and around the city!

Unfortunately I always seemed to be pressed for time and as I'm a firm believer in the saying a picture speak a thousand words I'll let my photos tell you the story!!
