Another day at the office


Yesterday afternoon, Yous Thy, our director, asked if I would give a workshop this morning on report writing. Until now, I thought she was a reasonable woman! We worked things out so we would co-lead the workshop. Tona translated for me, but I was pretty impressed that the staff understood so much of my English. Our 2 classes a day are helping. That and I practically act out everything I am saying! You'll see in the photo that being on the floor is preferred. I still always shake my head when I see the staff hard at work on the floor next to their desks. You''ll note a motor cycle or two in the room which is also normal. Isn't the Khmer writing beautiful! What you can''t see is that we're all barefoot, something I have gotten use to and come to love!
