    There is a small but growing art community in Phnom Penh and Cambodia. Here is just a small example of some public art I found after lunch today.

    This is an amazing group of young christians. We were invited to the discipleship class run by some fellow C&MA workers. I’m excited to get to know them better.

    Every time I return to Cambodia, I am surprised by the speed of the development in this country. Though gentle in nature, there is a sense that the people here are racing to catch up with the rest of the world. This is just one of several “uber-like” apps available that is new in the…

    Today is my one month anniversary being here in Cambodia. It’s hard to believe. I’ve accomplished a lot in a short amount of time. But most importantly I feel settled. At the end of a day scooting around town in tuktuks and generally communicating by hand gesture, it’s nice to come back to our little…

    Here’s another one, because I like how unique each one is. I feel like Phnom Penh has a very entrepreneurial spirit. However, for better or worse, this mean everyone is selling something.

    I still remember the strange sense of vertigo as I landed in Phnom Penh at 12pm. I navigated my way through immigration and out to a waiting teammate who brought me to the flat I had rented. We carted up my luggage to the 5th floor and I sat down on my bed, in the…

    Phnom Penh has many markets, each with its own flavor. Here’s a glimpse of the Russian market. Though Cambodia has more western style stores, you could call this the Khmer Walmart. Here I could pick up anything from dried fruit to auto parts to some new cloths.
