On the way back into Siem Reap after the floating village we stopped at this artists school. This is a school where they teach traditional crafts to impoverished youngters. So it was refreshing to see that some do get an opportunity, particularly if their families were not able to afford to send them to school. They make beautiful stone, wood statues and household furniture so we did a little shopping at the end of it and it was nice to know the profits made go back into funding the school.
