Thank you, Luisa. I remember meeting you when you came through the PEPY office in Phnom Penh. I am impressed with your reflections and was at the time meeting all of you – you all had such great questions. As always, impressed with the programs Dragons offers and the students it attracts. Great work, Luisa.

I love this: “By allowing ourselves to feel emotions, we are indulging ourselves.”

Very, very interesting. And that photo of the mother who looks so detached from her newborn is strikingly haunting.

sometimes I wonder how people in countries such as cambodia survive at all. it’s as though the gov’t is trying to do all they can to not help their citizens. I was complaining to a friend here in costa rica about their public healthcare and she’s like, this is heaven. she lived in china for years and she says they don’t even have any sort of healthcare at all for their people.

Luisa-

Thanks for sharing your research and travel experiences with us. The opening of the article was really strong and drew me in. The more one travels–it doesn’t matter where, really– the more questions one has. You’d think that wouldn’t be the case– that you’d have more answers! But I’ve always found that new questions arise as the questions we thought we were asking get refined. And that’s a good thing.

Very interesting, Luisa! I’ve never thought to associate emotions with the healthcare experience. It’s very unfortunate that many of the world’s people can’t expect comfort from their medical facilities.

On a related note, when I was in Siem Reap 2 and a half years ago, I gave blood at that clinic that’s advertised in all the guidebooks. It was actually a more pleasant experience than giving blood in the US!
