On the first day in Cambodia we nearly died because a cow dashed across the road and our coach driver jerked to a halt just in time ALSO YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MANY TIMES I HELD IN MY PEE AND POOP WHILE SQUIRMING ABOUT IN THE BUNK BED BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE THE DORM AND GET EATEN ALIVE BY MOSQUITOES although I do miss sipping on coconuts while watching the sun set into the endless sea that flanked the paddy fields at the end of a day of housebuilding.
