Julia Teacher is back! In the volunteer edition. Next week Julia Teacher 1 and Julia Teacher 2 will be helping out at the New Hope School on the outskirts of Siem Reap.
Today we showed up for some orientation which translated into making 75 balloon dogs, and playing a variety of my favorite games from Korea includin 7UP and hangman though sadly no hokey pokey.
The downside of teaching is the hours. We work from 2-6pm which happens to be the hottest time of the day during the hottest month of the year in Cambodia. It is unbelievably hot. By 2:30 I had drenched my T-shirt in sweat. It does, though, feel really good to have purpose to my day more than hunting down food/lodging and the occasional temple.
