Beautiful Cambodia

As part of my new responsibilities with the Junior Youth Spiritual Empowerment Program, I have been blessed with the opportunity to travel around Cambodia a little more this year. Cambodia has 23 provinces and i've managed to visit only about 5 places since i've been here (spent at least a night).

This year, i'm scheduled to spend about a week in 11 clusters, in 9 provinces, 7 of which i've never stayed at (even though i've passed through numerous times on bus trips). Anyhow, the first visit was to Pursat cluster (1 - 6 May 2009) and then, to Preah Vihear cluster (28 May - 4 June). More stories later, but here are a few pictures of other beautiful parts of Cambodia :D

Imagine looking out of your house to sceneries like these:

Some pictures of the everyday life out in the villages:
Quiet streets at noon-time

Piglets taking a dip in the afternoon heat

The following pictures were taken in Songkom Thmei, also in Preah Vihear. I will have to spend more time on a whole blog post about getting to Songkom Thmei. As Cheng Ra, a friend of mine, describes, "Songkom Thmei is the kind of place if i am not there, i do not want to go there but if i am in there, i do not want to get out from."
