Intro

I arrived in Cambodia August 8, 2013 in search of a new adventure. I enrolled in LanguageCorps Asia's TESOL program to become certified to teach English. I knew very little about Cambodia and was planning to complete the program in Thailand and teach there. I decided after two days in Cambodia to stay here and teach.

When I arrived in Cambodia everything seemed so new and foreign. The tuk tuks navigating the Phnom Penh traffic and the moto's carrying a family of five seemed outrageous. The tendency of driver's to drive on the opposite side of the road to avoid a traffic delays, the dusty streets and pedestrians casually walking into on coming traffic to cross the street was very chaotic and exciting.

My girlfriend, Meizel is an employee of LanguageCorps and we currently live together at the Marady Hotel where the LanguageCorps program is based. This blog will focus primarily on our adventures together while we explored this exciting foreign country in Southeast Asia.

I was raised in Northern Virginia and then went to college at the University of Kansas. I was living in Scottsdale, Arizona when I decided to fly to Cambodia to start my new adventure.

Meizel Nuera was raised on the island of Bohol, Philippines in the town of Trinidad. She was living in Cebu when she decided to move to Cambodia to complete her TESOL with LanguageCorps.
