Welcome to Eye of the Liger


On July 27, 2012, Caroline and Jeff left the United States to begin a two-year contract with Liger Learning Center, a lab school located about twenty minutes from Phnom Penh, Cambodia. This blog is an attempt to document our experiences and help our family and friends understand our day-to-day lives abroad.

A note about Liger: Liger (LLC) is the first school of its kind. It seeks to motivate local Cambodian students to excel, while maintaining deep ties to Cambodia. We have between forty and fifty students aged eight to ten, more than half of whom will live on-site. Each student has undergone a rigorous testing process, proving their exceptional potential. The school does not charge tuition and does not follow a typical curriculum. We strive to provide each student with a tailored educational experience, focused around the social, health, environmental and economic issues of their country. The students begin August 11, 2012.
