Imma, Maroesja, Erin and Janet |
This month started with a super party for Imma (Spanish) who is leaving for another posting. She has been working here for 3 years with a Spanish NGO who are trying to work with issues such as gender equality and domestic violence. Erin and Maroesja decided to wear traditional Khymer tops but I could not cope with all that bling!! I will miss Imma but she has left me a great stock of lentils.
This is my moto parked at work. |
The rainy season got off to a slow start which gave me time to practice my skills at riding in red mud!
It is so slippery and there is a big big puddle at the end of the road- too deep for motos so we have to go down and up through a ditch! This is not too scary if you attack at the right angle, but this week a big scary dog has decided to attack me at the same time as I attempt the ditch. So far, it has only grabbed my clothes! But this week the rain has really begun and it is quite dangerous driving at times.
