Departing Tomorrow

Starting tomorrow at 5:30am Central when the shuttle picks me up to go to the airport, I begin my journey to Cambodia for the 9th year in the row. I arrive about 30 hours later in Siem Reap to start working on this year's projects:

  • Continued computer maintenance and education efforts. I might teach a class at a local university this time.
  • Project review for the import and distribution of large mosquito nets. Is this a sustainable project that is needed in the area?
  • Meeting with the head of USAID in Phnom Penh. This will be a great opportunity to validate our efforts, network, and identify future projects.
  • Administrative needs are also important as we finally finish work to get our 501(c)(3).
I'll be in Cambodia for a full two weeks this year. It has been an amazing experience to meet the people and become part of the town. I don't live there, but I think of it as home.
