Ho Chi Minh City: 11-14 Sep 08















Visited Cress with Sam - our first time to Vietnam.

Cress was so hospitable - we had so much fun.

We went on the Mekong Delta and Cu Chi tunnel tours and ate lots of pho and yummy Vietnamese food.

Cambodia - Project Khmer Hope 24 to 29 Jan

Visited Beng Geok at PKH. See http://www.livingstreams.org.sg/pkh/about.html for more info.
Stayed there and helped out with student interviews.




Cambodia - Seeds of Hope 24 - 29 Jan

Seeds of Hope is the orphanage next to PKH.

Check out the children's dorm.
The compound is huge and it has a pig sty and vegetable farm.

Cambodia - PNH and around 24 - 29 Jan



This is the vehicle that went to pick me up from the airport.

Since PKH trains students for the hotel industry, I was privileged to visit hotels with Beng Geok and Susan.

Below is a photo taken at the yet-to-be opened Sokha Club.



Below is a photo of Le Raffles at night and a photo of two musicians performing on Cambodian instruments.



And a photo of the Royal Palace at sunset...



Another mode of transport:



Visited the Kampong Speu market...



And here's a picture of the beach resort at Sihanoukville which I'd like visit some day.

Cambodia - Meals @ Project Khmer Hope 24 - 29 Jan

Had a taste of genuine Khmer food @ PKH...

Look at the small fish - fried or cooked in gravy...



Bamboo stem and fish soup... full of fibre... :)



And the cook, Aunty Narit, cooking cauliflower with meat for about 20 of us...

Trip to Perth 20-25 Apr 2007

Had a wonderful time in Perth, taking a break from the stresses of life, refreshing my spirit, enjoying God's creations, doing things I normally don't get to do, meeting up with friends...

Some photo memories:
Jellyfish thru the clear water at Mathilda Bay

Birds at Lake Joondalup

Pelican & Seagull at Coogee

Sunset at Freo

Catching yellow-tails
