My girlfriend and I arrived in Cambodia on November 5. I brought her back with me to show her how people really live here in Cambodia. She didn’t believe me how poor the country was; how people are using car batteries as their power source; how they still live in straw huts; and how they do not have proper running water.

When I took her back to my mom’s side in the country side, she saw it all. She was shocked and later understood how lucky we are to being in a developed country, Canada.

Just being from the outside world, she now appreciates every little detail when she go back to Canada.
