I’ve lived and worked in Phnom Penh for
nearly five years now. I like this city. This is my typical day.
Every morning, I wake up early. Then,
my neighbors and I walk from our apartments to the Riverside. We walk there for
45 minutes before coming home. Then I have breakfast. My breakfast is called an
English breakfast. It has bacon, sausage, eggs, fruit, and a cup of tea with
milk.
Later, I go to work at Paññāsāstra
University of Cambodia, Institute of Foreign Language (PUC IFL). I teach
English there. Most of my students are Cambodian, and only a few are Chinese or
Vietnamese. In the class, we have a very good time together because my students
really like studying English and like playing games.
At lunch time, I usually have lunch
with other Khmer teachers at school. I like Khmer food. I often order fish soup
and fried vegetables. Then we go back to school to correct students’ homework
and plan new lessons.
After teaching in the
afternoon, a few Khmer friends and I go to the gym next to our school. We go to
the gym three times a week. In the evening, I like going to bars along the
riverside to drink and chat with friends. I like my life in this beautiful
city.
