About this blog

It is a difficult task describing the experiences of living from a backpack in foreign lands. Giving some sort of overview is even more harrowing. For the best tales, check out the series of Shout Outs posted in the Travelogue.

I have mainly created this page as a platform for my CambodiaFund. After a few days in Cambodia I was astounded by the conditions most children must face. A cruel civil war has created an essentially missing generation. Over 50% of the population is under 24. Children live in the streets or in impoverished orphanages. They are in great need of help and CambodiaFund is my attempt to maximize my ability to do so.
