A favorite phrase among the Cambodian children trying to get you to buy from them. But in all seriousness, there are a ton of children here who need help. We visited an orphanage in Siem Reap and got a chance to meet the children. These kids are very poor, but seem happy together. And grateful at the chance to play with the new visitors. We spent time listening to them sing songs and played game after game. Anyone who knows me knows I'm not exactly kid-friendly. So being here was a little weird for me, but the kids are so fun and happy, you can't help but fall for them. Mr. Sok, who runs the orphanage showed us the grounds, which include an outdoor "school" room, a kitchen, and the rooms where they sleep. No one has a mattress, let alone their own bed. Take a look at their website, and think about possibly donating to these kids who have so little. Here's a video of the kids singing for us.
