Hello. I have safely arrived in Phnom Penh, Cambodia! Along with six other jet lagged dentaid volunteers. An early start on Saturday morning quickly merged into a new day as we crossed over time barriers and into new parts of the world. The flight went surprisly quickly despite the lack of sleep. We are staying in a family home of the charity "one-2-one" whom we'll be working with out here.

We decided to go for a little walk to stay awake during the afternoon, which ended up with us getting caught in a very heavy rain/lightening/thunderstorm. We were all drenched on returning.

Jackfruit is my food of the day. I don't think I've ever tried it before. It was a lovely sweet finish to a delicious meal cooked by our hosts.

Half way through writing this I fell asleep, so we are now into Monday! Today is a national holiday, so we start work tomorrow. This morning we visited the killing fields. I won't say much because it was a very harrowing experience, and just thinking about it saddens me.

So this afternoon we are having a break for lunch, whilst making the most of any WiFi we can find - to keep in touch wiyh family and friends. And then exploring the city some more.

Bye for now!
