I was quite surprised when plans of the service learning Cambodia trip were announced to us. Cambodia is a country that is foreign to me, as I have never been there before and the things I know about this country comes mainly from books and the television. I’m really excited at the thought of us students having an active role in the planning of this trip. Working together with friends to carry out our plans when we are right there in Cambodia is also something that I look forward to. I hope that at the end of this trip, after I have personally experienced service learning, I will bring away with me a fresh perspective of improving the lives of the needy. The memories and experiences I gain will be reminders of this service learning project.
