Cambodians


Cambodia is home to some of the warmest and kindest people in the world. It is also the poorest place I have ever visited.

Even though most people are poor, they are very happy and friendly. Big smiles greeted me wherever I went, especially from little kids playing in the street. This country directly contradicts the American point of view that I have grown up with; it is amazing how people with so little can be so happy.

It’s hard to really describe Cambodian life here, but what I saw is truly exceptional.
