A Day In the Live of a Gapper by Claire Patterson (Part 1)

Claire Patterson came out as a lead teacher for a school expedition to Borneo last summer 2013. Having had a great experience with Camps, she decided that after the trip she would continue doing her own independent travel across Asia and at the same time have the opportunity to visit our Camp in Cambodia – Camp Beng Melea. Here she shares her experience and photos of a day in the live of a gapper..

6:3oam Wakey Wakey! It may seem early but after a rewarding days work, and early night, when 6.30am comes everyone is up and raring to go.

7am – Breakfast. Everyone gathers around the table like a big family for a breakfast of – noodles/ eggy bread or vegetable rice.

7:30am Hi Ho, hi ho, it’s off to work we go.

Project – Building a class room with the materials, always need a good discussion of a plan of action when your faced with a task like that.

Progress in one week..We all need a little help from our friends…. Working under the watchful eye of the students. To be continued..more on next blog.
