I am like... stunned right now at this place.
It is super dirty. I am not a germ person, but I’ll get over that really soon. The
food is all kind of a gamble to eat (haha) but whatever… I am still trying
stuff. So yes, they do eat dog all the time here; and no I haven't eaten it… yet.

My trainer is cool. It turns out he got trained
by my teacher at the MTC… which is cool.
I am in Phnom Penh right now, Branch
three. I taught gospel principles class and also had to give a short talk. Flip
that was hard (haha), but it was cool. I have no idea what language I learned
in the MTC, but it sure wasn't Vietnamese.
My house is nice, very few bugs and not too
many rats. There are lots of ants though. We have to use only use bottled water
for everything, which gets a little annoying. So far I haven't had the runs so
that’s a plus. :)
We have already taught like 6 lessons and have
also contacted 18 people, I think. It is super hard to find the Viets here
because we have to ask the Cambodian people where they are. I don’t know any
Khmer, so that makes it hard.
I have seen some super sad stuff here already.
It kind of breaks my heart to see some of the lives of these people. But they
all smile whenever I say hello and I try to be as loving and kind as I can.
Tried to order fried rice in Khmer and flipping
ordered a dish of cooked liver. eww.
It rains a lot here and super hard. Oh and our
shower is like in the bathroom with the toilet, and we use like a sprayer to
clean our (you know) when we (you know). I was super confused the first time. (haha)
But its actually kinda nice (haha).
