as i am kinda exhausted and have yet to plan tomorrow's lesson, i'm just going to put up the pics from this weekend.
jen and i wound up back on the south coast in Kampot province, first on the coast in a fishing village, then inland a bit in chamka bei for a development plan workshop our organisation held with a number of the villagers in that area [all ex-khmer rouge].
as soon as i finish the report i'll post all about it but at the moment all i can say is that it was surreal and exhausting and beautiful and i learnt more than i think i am aware of at this moment.
and i really need to start learning khmer. seriously.
oh, and who needs coffee when you can just walk into one classroom in a three room building built by unesco in the middle of rice paddies and cow fields to the raucous laughter of 30 ex-khmer rouge villagers playing 'simon says'. [SURREAL.]
anyway, here are a few pics i managed to salvage. my camera was being a pain the entire weekend.
[and the post before is the centre we were at all weekend.]
the others are from the drive there and the drive home [which i fondly/accurately title 'southern cambodia through the lense of a tempermental camera mid-monsoon dodging cows and people and bikes at 60miles an hour']
[but maaan. its weird to come back from something like that and have to study for SATIIs.]
