I would like to thank everyone who made my trip to America
memorable. That was the most fun I have
ever crammed into two weeks. Throughout
my trip I was able to see almost all my extended family and all of my immediate
family during my visit, along with many good friends.
Two and
a half weeks is by no measure a long time to visit all your friends and family
that you have not seen for over a year, but I feel like I did a decent job of
seeing everyone barring a few people.
Not only was my vacation filled
with visiting people but it was also something reminiscent of a Roman buffet
when everyone eats until they vomit (sorry for the picture but there were many
times I ate until I could barely move).
I would also like to thank my mom for all the baked goods I didn’t have
much time to indulge in because I was eating unhealthy amounts of other foods.
The
total count of my weight gain while in America was 10 lbs, but it practically
melted away once I returned to Cambodia and I am back to my lean self. Just goes to show how desperate some of us
volunteers can be for a burrito.
I want
to thank my Brother and Sister-in-law and their wonderful daughter, Clara, for
giving me one excellent weekend at Worlds and Oceans of Fun. I had a blast, and I can’t believe how big
Clara has gotten in my one year absence.
I would
also like to thank my Mom and Grandma because without you two this trip would
have never been possible. They arranged
everything and cooked until there wasn’t a food in the house that was wanting.
Finally,
welcome to all the newly minted Peace Corps volunteers in Cambodia (I even have
one living in my town) they have 2 years of experiences that will last a
lifetime.
