As I put the final touches on my packing in my even more bare room it hit me that this is the last time I will be seeing this room, this school, the students and my co-teachers. My room that once reminded me of a concrete prison, all white walls and no decorations, is now my home; my second home. These students are a part of me. Sure they make me want to pull out my hair and beat my head on the wall sometimes but from what I can tell that is the norm of teaching, and I won't get to experience this with them, I won't get to see them grow or see what the path they chose to take in this crazy wild ride called life. That is sad to me, but I know they will do amazing!
Just now I put my bag into the car to be taken for storage, and by this time tomorrow I will be half way to Cambodia. It is crazy to me that I will be traveling for 21 days with only a book bag full of clothes and essentials, but hey if Thailand has taught me anything it is that less is more, and there is no need for worthless possessions! WOW! Part of me is sad for the life I am leaving behind, yet a bigger part of me is thrilled to start a journey that I know will truly open my eyes even more.
My dates for traveling and my future blog posts are:
September 26th-29th: Cambodia
September 29th-October 3rd: Chiang Mai
October 3rd-October 10th: Krabi/Koh Pi Pi/ Koh Lanta

Here is to traveling, seeing the world, and becoming a stronger woman! Wohoooooo Cambodia here I come!
