Some People Are Hero. Cambodia 07/17/2010
Add Comment Paul has one of those wonderful winning laughing smiles I love. He's also very good at riding motorcycles...as is the rest of the world beyond the USA. I thought he was a total Cambodian BABE! This woman has a pure sense of joy that I can only envy! She threw me so many winning toothless smiles and a strikingly firm two-handed hand shake that I had to wonder if I had given her flowers or a mustang in a past life. Joy is always beautiful. Lucky one. Cambodia 07/11/2010
As a baby he was found abandoned crying and sunburned in a crematorium in the middle of nowhere. No one in the closest town would claim him and so Mr. Ross brought him to his Orphanage and English School for poor Cambodian children. Today he's 10! Healthy and beautiful. This girl has SASS! I'm not sure what my former notions were of children who become orphans, but she has me intrigued with her delightfully self-affirming playful little attitude. She is Katouer's little sister- spunky and gorgeous. I will have to photograph the drawing she gave me of herself. She's wearing hot pink and has very long hair and a pretty smile; I think that would help illuminate her beautiful spirit more than this photograph! Her mother scavenged for wild mushrooms near the sketchy Cambodia/Thai border and could not support her three kids. At Mr Ross's Orphanage they now have enough to eat and English lessons to help them find work in the future. Katouer is so beautiful and sweet! I spied this little girl playing in the dirt on a muddy stretch of road around the corner...very similar to my own playing in the dirt wearing a sequined red tutu when I was younger...needless to say, I loved her style! Part of Taekwondo and Hakido is about poise, this 12 year old had more poise than a great many adults I know...and a great laughing smile! Tom, tuk-tuk driver. Siem Reap, Cambodia 07/09/2010
