Cambodia- day 53

Day 53 Thurs 10/18
Lazy day. Our last day with Stephanie and the last day in Siem Reap. We went to a cute coffee/ice cream shop and hung out and read on the white couches. Stephanie left at 4:30. Maggie and I went through the market for the last time, but ended up with Mexican margs and tacos for dinner. A guy from Tennessee joined us and told us his life story. He is 27, was homeschooled, went to Lipscomb, has been backpacking for a year, and is going home on Thanksgiving to surprise his family. Sometimes its cool to hear about life from a different angle . After dinner, Maggie and I got fish massages, where you put your feet in a fishbowl and all the fish come nibble off your dead skin. Funny. when we walked home, we heard an English school in progress so we went in and they were thrilled to have two American guest appearances. We introduced ourselves and Maggie taught a little bit about the states while I sat and talked to three girls in the front of the classroom, mainly a girl named Ceena who was 13 and had dreams to be a doctor and a lawyer. It was a lot of fun and the class was welcoming.
