Cambodia…Kampong Cham to be exact. These are just a few photos from what we’ve seen so far.
This is the Vietnamise floating village. Around 200 families exist within within this cluster of homes. They have traveled to Cambodia by land but are forced to live on the water by the Cambodian government.
Some young Buddhist monks that I met at a temple. A lot of times young boys are sent off to be monks because they are considered bad or parents want them to be educated. Being does not have to be a long term commitment. Many times young men become monks because they’re put in by parents our want to study.
Tuk Tuk is the popular form of transportation in this country. It seats four and is pulled by a scooter. It is a nice change from the trike and jeepney, where you go for the Guinness Book of World Records of how many people you can fit on the back of one each time you ride.
They love coconut juice in Cambodia. Slice open the top add a little warm water and you have yourself a beverage. My personal opinion no the most refreshing drink, taste a little like warm sugar water. 
A spirit house can be found in almost every yard in Kampong Cham. The people believe that these houses are shelter for spirits that if not appeased could cause trouble.
Kampong Cham, the capital city of Kampong Cham provenience, is a sleeping city. It doesn’t attract many tourist and is pretty far removed from westernized culture. Our time in Kampong Cham has been good so far and am excited to see how the Lord uses us in this place.
