Roads Less Travelled
Thursday, March 22nd, 2007Cara was bitter. She was sick, stranded in the hotel room. Adam met Pirom, a clever 16 year old english student, who invited him for a Sunday visit in his family’s village. Adam consumed palm juice, palm wine, and ice cold beer. Adam ate mangoes, palm fruit, tamarind, and coconuts hand picked from their trees. Adam feasted on rice from their paddies and chicken from their yard. In short, Adam spent the day being treated like royalty in the Cambodian countryside by an amazingly nice family, while Cara watched bad 90’s movies in bed.
