I recently went to Angkor Wat and other temples around Siem Reap, the most popular tourist attractions in Cambodia. Angkor Wat is the largest religious structure in the world. We spent a day and a half exploring temples, including the temple where the movie Tomb Raider was filmed. 
I fulfilled a childhood dream by climbing (mostly stumbling) through ruins of old temples like Indiana Jones.
Now that we have returned to the Phnom Penh, I am taking Khmer classes and teaching at an orphanage. It's pretty difficult, but I'm looking forward to being able to communicate through spoken language, rather than my unintelligible sign language and Tarzan style English. The writing is very difficult and I doubt I'll get the hang of it....
