We've volunteered at New Futures Orphanage. It's not 
quite how I pictured an orphanage, if I'm honest. I guess I've just had misconceptions because of the Romanian pictures that you always used to see. The kids here are all smiley and super clever (presumably because they spend a whole heap of time hanging put with gap year students - the clever bit, not the smiley bit, obviously).
We're in Takeo, which is about two hours off the gringo trail, which means I had to step over a goat to get to the internet.
As I'm now an ethical traveller, I feel I should state for the record that I haven't blown up a cow with a bazooka, despite a lot of tuktuk drivers best efforts.
