Well, here I am, eating my Big Breakfast Combo Number One and writing my Sunday blog. It has been an eventful week: I taught, I tutored, I went out to dinner with the Korean staff at NPIC, and I talked to Andrea three times! Yeah! Today I am planning on updating the blog and shopping for groceries—it’s all pretty exciting.
This week I told my students the news that I would be leaving in two weeks and not be coming back; they were all a bit downtrodden. Yes, we have had a good year, but it’s time to move back home.
In tutoring this week, Roat, my student, brought a new friend of his to partake in the English tutoring. His little friend was a girl. I didn’t ask, but I wondered if there might be some summer magic in the air. Interesting fact: if there is some love fever going on, the Khmer kiss by sniffing, not touching lip to lip—yet another reminder that I am very far from home.
Anyway, this is a short update. I am doing well, finishing strong, and ardently looking forward to the journey home.
Take care,
Ben

Great to see Andrea & Reagan yesterday. Looking forward to seeing you soon. Peace
What, no Ange and Regan meter? I liked that part. You are going to have to explain the whole kissing thing to me, I don't get it...
