This morning I met C. near her guesthouse and we had a little time to catch up before taking tuktuk to the office of Southeast Asia Development Program SADP. SADP supports Cambodian capacitybuilding has a number of programs and Friendship with Cambodia works with them to support students who otherwise would not be able to afford university. When we entered the office I recognized a number o

Today is our host Renes birthday so we made some french toast. Were the only guests at the moment so it was Rene his family and us for breakfast. I had Dulce de Leche for the first time and realized that its like super super condensed and sweetened milk should have figured that out from the name I guess. Anyway apparently I like it because I think that I ate almost half of the di

Ive decided Im calling this semester Cuisine Cathedrals and Cocktails. And so it continuesMy third week in Rome and week 2 of classes and yoga and I definitely feel like I have a hold on the city. Everything is so great in the new apartment. I love cooking with my roommates and we have totally figured out how to easily get right downtown. This week during my Art of Rome class we w

We'd booked the overnight bus to leave Jaisalmer on 19th Feb at 3pm to arrive in Udaipur at 7am on 20th Feb today. We'd arranged a hotel that wasn't listed in the Lonely Planet because the prices were dirt cheap even cheaper than the crackden sewage smelling dump from that first night in Jaisalmer. Travelling in a bunker on an overnight bus is not something I would recommend. First of all no

This is my fourth blog so that means Ive been here for a month now. Its clich I know but time really does fly when youre having fun. I was thinking about what to include this week when I realized I havent really talked about the school and what the heck I am doing here. I thought I should fill you in so you dont think its all just fun and games. So I took some shots of som

Obwohl wir mittlerweile viele Straen hoch andere runter weitere nach links und manche nach rechts gelaufen sind lsst sich fr uns das Stadtbild eigentlich nur in Hochhuser kleine Huserwracks und Shoppingcenter unterteilen. Und genau aus diesem Grund verbringen wir auch die meiste Zeit dort im Shoppingcenter. In einer kurzen Verschnaufpause im Center trauen wir uns auch endlich mal

So this past week was a very stressful time but I am still having a lot of fun Last Sunday we were trying to run errands before classes started only to find out that most places in our neighborhood weren't open on Sundays. Sunday night we went to dinner with Carolin and Lidia's and mine new roommate Julia from Germany. We didn't stay out late though since class started the next morning. I h

Mike and I have had a few days exploring the area around Knysna. The rivers and inlets are a haven for wildlife lots of fantastic birds and butterflies which can be huge. We found a great par 3 course near Sedgefield which cost 8 for 18 holes. The greens were excellent and it would be a good challenge for any level of golfer. It was great fun and made even better by the birds on the lake next t

I would advise the Omni's facilities to everybody trying to find best hotel packages. The hotel provided a fine stay. Extremely clean. Optimal location. Within minutes of plenty of attractions They could've put in a little thought to the size of the suite. Staff was friendly but a little slow. Most friendly place however it's costly for what you get

Today was a connector day. We needed to connect two 50 mile days but this day had only 16 miles. Since we were going a short distance and didn't want to get there to early we took off around 1000. The hills of Texas are getting more and more pronounced. When we made it to town we found a small diner for lunch. This place had plenty of pictures of road kill alligators and rattle snakes on the wall

Day 5 in SydneyHeute war der erste Strandtag den ich mir geleistet haben. Mit dem Bus ging es zum Bondi Beach im Sden von Sydney. Das Busticket war fast so teuer wie meine Fahrkarte nach Katoomba. Zum Schwimmen hatte ich keine Lust mehr als ich gesprt habe wie kalt das Wasser ist. Ausserdem erzhlte ein Sandnachbar das er von einer Meduse verletzt worden ist. So kleine Blaue Quallen Blue

Had a good day yesterday in Via del Mar area. We went there by bus for lunch with Estban Jan and Vicnte but we ended up spending all day with them touring through Via Reaca and Con Con including a visit to a restaurant right on the coast. Its literally built onto the rocks and has crashing surf outside the huge West facing windows. We all had seafood chowders of soups and th

Joy of joys this trip was to be taken in airconditioned comfort. What a treat indeed. I may have mentioned how hard am finding it adjusting to the heat out here. Have I Am sure I must have it has pretty much been my all consuming thought this last week.

After 11 hours on a train from Bucharest to Arad I finally arrived to stay for the next 2 days. I stayed at a house for orphans and learned a lot about the process of bringing children out of the state orphanages into homes. The state orphanages have from 300 600 children and there is 1 nurse for about 32 babies. It is so hard for the nurses to keep up and the babies end up being changed on
