Our first few days into Traing, (our training site) and we have already deemed ourselves as the athletic bunch out of the other two training villages. Which i'm sure is not really true but playing soccer, basketball or some other type of sport on a daily basis really helps keep our mental and emotional stability much stronger and healthier. I know for me it is definitely a stress reliever. Thank goodness for friends who like to plays sports!
Playing sports not only with my fellow Peace Corps trainees but also with the local community has helped us to build stronger relationships. I can't tell you how much I look forward to gettting done with our training at the end of day to go out and play with everyone. Our training lasts for six days a week for almost 8 hours a day. By the end of the day I just want to run free and exhaust myself even more...as if sitting and learning a new language and learning how to become a Cambodian teacher wasn't enough.
