still hasn't completely sunk in yet.
We keep saying phrases to each other like, 'this is our new home' and 'we now live here' and it feels kinda unreal.
Of course, it's only a couple of months we'll be here but consensus was (from a random survey) that we can say we have 'lived' here.

Anyway, it's all very different.

Especially the smells... i've always been big on smells and often find myself remembering something purely from a smell. Cambodia is an aggressive sensory experience. Especially living (there's that word again) here in the centre of it all. The open drains, the street side cooking, the open fronted workshops, the rows and rows of fruit at the market, the motos furiously going past...Just making it across the main street calls some type of special extra sense that they all seem to have which leaves them swerving in the right direction every time to just miss eachother.

The plane flight was uneventful, the night in the hotel in Malaysia was refreshing and the customs and immigration was all pretty straight forward. Thanks to detailed instructions from friends. We are here on a business visa for educational purposes'.

I'm still not exactly sure what i'll be doing each day. Monday is typically the day off here so everyone is pretty relaxed and there's no visitors.
Tomorrow begins at with a 5:30 rise and a packed program.

Gotta run, it's dinner time!

p.s. ít's pretty hot here as well!
