Greetings from Siem Reap

 It has been a long time since we have updated the blog. We have left Kep and stayed another night in Kampot. We were then sent to Arn's house along the Mekong River. At Arn's house we mostly relexed and went swimming. At night we watched a movie with his community. The movie was in Khmer so we had a hard time following it. For two nights we sleep under the stars. We all have bug bits everywhere. Arn left to the U.S. so Visal, a dancer from the Cambodian Living Arts has joined us on our journey.We just arrived at Siem Reap, a smaller city than Phnom Penh, but larger than Kampot. We have started building a communty house in a local village, this house will be used for music events and other gatherings. In a mere two days of building, we have already started forging bonds with the local people and workers. So far the structure is up.
