Phnom Penh, the capital city of Cambodia

My Hometown

I was born and raised in the captial city of Cambodia, Phnom Penh. It is a bustling, diverse place filled with people from all over the country and the world. Scattered throughout the city are markets, parks, and restaurants. From the sound of monks chanting in the early morning to the busy streets filled with motorbikes and tuk-tuks, the city is always alive. Every part of the city is full of historical and cultural importance that document the heart of the Khmer people. Life in Phnom Penh moves quickly, yet it still holds onto traditions that have been passed down for generations.

My Current Education and Future Plans

I am currently a freshman at the University of the Cumberlands majoring in Computer Science. When I graduate, I plan to get a software engineering job at a tech company. Eventually, I want to return to Cambodia to see my family and maybe a job over there too.

My Relationship with the Internet

My relationship with the Internet has been a long journey that has spanned most of my life. I believe that all of us in this day and age has some connection to the Internet in one way or another. I use the Internet for many things ranging from entertainment to filling out legal paperwork. The most important thing about the Internet for me is the ability to connect people from great distances. I spend about 5 - 6 hours per day on the Internet.
