This is 2006 and my home is Phnom Penh. I�m on a placement for a volunteer organization that aims at the sharing of skills and knowledge for a local salary. My years in Cambodia have their highs and lows but hours of careless happiness are hard to come by. There is commiseration and compassion, camaraderie, self-doubt, euphoria, dismay and desperation. My pen and paper provide me with an escape to sanity while I catch myself writing down the same basic question, again and again: �What are all these people like me doing here?�This is a personal story filled with observations and doubts. This is not the truth. These are my reports from Cambodia.
