English Camp







A few weeks ago, Jan and I hosted a 2 day English Camp for the Wang Muang school in one of thlocal districts. It was the first time either of us had tried this, so we were a bit nervous. There was a few rough spots, but all and all, it went pretty well. Roong was there for the first day, to help translate some of the more complicated ideas. The students and the faculty there seemed pretty happy with the whole thing. We are hoping that word will get around about this, and other schools will ask us to do the same thing there.
In the second photo, on the left, you can see one of the girls sticking a white thing up her nose...that is like a vicks inhaler. The kids here are addicted to the stuff. All it does is open your nasal passages a bit for a few minutes. I guess they get a rush off of it, i dunno, but they all use them constantly. Who knows....
