Hi Manu! Thank you for the wonderful review!
It was nice having you with us! Unfortunately I was too late to write you a review, I'll try and see if I can contact WP in order to still leave you a review.

For those who read this. Manu helped us out in content creation. She's very skillful in making interesting videos/reels etc. You should check out her Instagram account, you can see that it's on the roll!

All the best with your travels Manu!

We met with Tabitha on a video call initially who explained further about the opportunities that the organization has in Cambodia. My partner and I went to Kampot province and stayed in their centre, a short ride out of the town itself. It was a marvellous way to see rural Cambodian life and live more simply for several weeks. It has truly made my time in Cambodia so special. We helped at the centre in several ways, teaching the kids, the teenage trainees, painting one of the walls. Those who run the centre are kind, patient and a pleasure to be around, and I shall never forget the lovely kids!

It has been such an immersive experience into the local lifestyle and culture. I do really recommend it. My task was about painting an art mural in one of the school's walls. I had the freedom of painting the idea I had after agreeing some points. I really enjoyed it.

I had such a fun time donating my time and effort to creating a mural for the organization Cambodia. The organization is truly inspiring and I learned so much from volunteering here. The accommodation was very basic, as mentioned, but I will say that mural painting was a little challenging in the conditions. It was very hot, na/C, and the food is all traditional Cambodian, but if you can tough it out, there is plenty of wall space and opportunity to let your creativity flow.
