It's almost time to return home, and I feel like we are just getting to be familiar with the city, people, and culture. After meeting with different Cambodian people, going through an immersion experience, and visiting another village today, I think we are beginning to get a more comprehensive look at the rural life here, but there is so much left to learn. This entire trip has been not just a ''good experience'' but something that will impact all of us for a long time, if not the rest of our lives. I know I will never forget these cities, villages, and the faces of Cambodia.

There are two days left, and I have no doubt that there will be even more unexpected happenings, and unforgettable memories. Events to come include visiting a kindergarten, a particularly poverty-stricken village (even by Cambodian standards), and a group of engineers are going to check out an ancient man-made lake. Many of us are also planning to do some biking around Siem Reap. And who knows what else will happen in those two days-- after all, it is Cambodia.
