On the 20th of August 2018 I'll be jetting off to South East Asia, more specifically CAMBODIA! I'm super lucky to be on the course that I am because it has an amazing placement scheme. For my first placement I have chosen to go to Takeo (just south of Phnom Penh) to teach English for 3 months.
I have mixed emotions about going. I've never been to Asia before so I really don't know what to expect. It's exciting because I'll be experiencing a different part of the world but it's also nerve racking because I'm on my own!
As part of my placement I have to write an anthropological report on issues that I've come across in Cambodia. I've been doing some readings on the Cambodian genocide in 1975 which has really helped me understand Cambodian history and what the country has been through in the past.
In the mean time I'm getting myself ready to go. Making travel plans, buying a mosquito net, sorting out my jabs, deciding what to pack etc. I'll be writing my experiences up on this blog so feel free to check in to read what ive been up to!
