So Where's Lisa Now?

Although looking very young (8) in my last post, Lisa is now 16 years old. From 2006 to 2009, she studied at Hope International School, here in Phnom Penh, and took eight IGCSEs earlier this year. Unfortunately, while Hope offers AS levels in Years 12 and 13, it does not offer A2s, which Lisa needs to get into university. As a result, she has now gone back to England, and is living with a host family in Colchester for one year. Next year, when we go back on Home Assignment, we are planning for her to move back in with us, unless she's grown to like her new host family more! She has just started attending The Sixth Form College, Colchester, doing five AS levels, and hopefully going on to her A2s there next year. We manage to Skype and email quite a lot, and we are looking forward to her visit back to Cambodia over the Christmas break, but it is still hard having her so far away from us. The picture, by the way, was taken on the beach at Prajuap, Thailand, during our last family holiday together before she left.
