I LOVE CAMBODIA ★☆
I came back from Cambodia on August 26th.
I had stayed for 7days in Cambodia and for
2days in Vietnam.
In Cambodia there are many street children
and handicapped people who have lost their
arms or legs by antipersonnel mines.
The state of environment was more terrible
than I had expected.
Many people have difficulty making their
livings and 70 percentage of children can't
go to school. I was really shocked the difference
from Japan. In Japan having food is a matter of
course and we can buy anthing what we want,
however, in Cambodia many people
have difficulty having food and they are working
for their family's food.
I felt their strength and warm heart,
on the other hand I felt miserable to us.
We are well off materially but we sometimes
lack of warm heart or enthusiam.
I had many opportunities to meet street children.
They don't have their parents, but they have never
showed sad face.
They always smiled and ran up to me. I can't forget
their smiles. Their smiles are pure, honest, strength
and happy. They gave me much power and made
me get rid of my tiredness. Even they have no money
they look very happy.
The experience in Cambodia made me change my
view of life and gave me many assigment that I have
to think about or learn more.
One thing I felt is that I have to appreciate having
food, going to school, working and being health.
This 9days are really valuable experience and I will
never forget. I want to say thank you to the pople I
had met in 9days!!!

Hi, Nana:) I think you had valuable and great experiences!!
I have learned about street children and I'm interested in it.So I wanna listen your story a lot!
hi nana! wow, you got really really good experiences.
when i was in high school, i also applyed to volunteer work in philippine but at that time i couldn't go there because of terror. so i wanna hear your story and plz show me many pictures, too!
I can see you had a really good time with children from this picture! I think you were able to learn many important things from this experience. Please tell me your precious experience!
Nana, your pictures are amazing and your posting is one of the best I've read... you really analyzed your experiences and have thought about how they relate to you and your country.
Now that is some serious critical thinking!!!
I was impressed by your posting! I guess we are living in the lap of luxury too much. People in there are much more tough than us! We should be tough like them.
Nice pics and posting!!
I envy that you're able to do something directly for such people. That experience must be your great asset in your life.
p.s. You're good at writing?!
