Update: Bored at work

CAMBODIA | Tuesday, 3 Mar 2009 | Views [145]

I haven't done much blogging since I have been in Korea. There are a few reasons for this. One reason is I came here to work and save money, and blogs about working just aren't that interesting.   Another reason is that I don't have the internet at ... Read more >

Camp Life

CAMBODIA | Monday, 19 Jan 2009 | Views [109] | Comments [1]

The day after I arrived in Seoul, I found a 2 week job working an English Camp. I was stoked, I had never worked at an English Camp but it sounded fun. It is basically a camp that parents send their kids to during Winter or Summer vacation. The camp ... Read more >


Korea First Impressions

SOUTH KOREA | Sunday, 4 Jan 2009 | Views [171] | Comments [2]

My first full day in Korea was New Year Eve and it was a pretty awesome one. The first thing I had to do was go to a job interview. I was a little worried about what would happen if I didn’t get the job, but it was all invain, because after ten minutes ... Read more >

Back in PP

CAMBODIA | Tuesday, 16 Dec 2008 | Views [101]

On my return trip from Siem Reap I wanted to take one of the overstuffed local vans I described in my Tour de Cambodge blog, just for the story but Kate from the Hash had an extra free bus ticket, and I couldn’t justify turning in down. I had to pay ... Read more >


Siam Reap 13.1

CAMBODIA | Sunday, 14 Dec 2008 | Views [195]

I had a day to rest before the half marathon, but my legs were still sore from my cycling when the starting gun was fired. I recited my mantra “pain is temporary, pride is forever” and ran like the wind (on a slightly breezy day). My training was screwed ... Read more >

Hash Name

CAMBODIA | Tuesday, 2 Dec 2008 | Views [258]

I have mention the Hash House Harriers in quite a few of my blogs. I have spent most Sundays afternoons on hash runs in various outskirts of Phnom Penh. It's quite a bit of fun and I would reccomend it to anyone anywhere. On Sunday it was the last run ... Read more >

The boys are in town

CAMBODIA | Wednesday, 26 Nov 2008 | Views [238]

Since getting back to Phnom Penh a lot has happened. The biggest thing was that I bought a one way plane ticket to LA. I decided that I would go home for the holidays. I will be leaving Phnom Penh in less than a month and I am already bummed that I ... Read more >
