Today's the day! I am at the airport ready to hop on a plane and fly out. But what's an adventure without some bumps in the road? Already starting out with one...my first flight was cancelled. Nonetheless, everything has been cleared up and with just a slight delay I am back on track.
I don't have the best idea yet about what kind of work I will be doing as an intern, but here's what I do know so far about my trip to Cambodia. Starting September 24th (my internship start date used to be the 22nd but changed) I will be interning with the Cambodian Organization for Children and Development (COCD) in Phnom Penh! COCD is a non-profit, non-government affiliated agency that provides resources and care to children and families in poverty, helping people thrive and live more sustainable and self-supporting lives. They have a website at the following link if you'd like to check that out too:

This internship will give me the opportunity to expand my experience in the field of human services, to work with children and families in poverty, and to experience a whole new country and culture!
I'm still scared, excited, anxious, nervous, thrilled, ect. ect., but I can't wait to get there!
