At the Independence Monument (left), there is a great roundabout (3 lanes - not that anybody would care about lanes on a street used about 80% by motos). The special rules (like most traffik signs) have a rather symbolic meaning.
As the title suggests, I am writing this Blog from Battambang, the second largest city of Cambodia. I'm a German volunteer staying here for one year with "Youth for Peace" a Cambodian NGO that is committed to educate youth in non-violent approaches to conflict resolution. I am here in Cambodia via DED (German Development Service) as are 21 other volunteers this year, 2 of which will also work with YfP. Being a volunteer without specific training, I am an 'irregular' worker in Cambodia and do my best to fill that role in as meaningful a way as I can. Therefore, I have started working with Children's Future International (CFI) - a young NGO doing some of the greatest work I've seen anyone doing in Cambodia - besides my work at YfP. This Blog is a first effort to share the impressions I gather here with someone else -> you, enjoy :)
If after reading of my experiences at CFI, you feel compelled to support that great initiative:
