Video: Home in Cambodia

In the Khmer language of Cambodia, everyone addresses each another as family.

This video was created as part of the Peace Corps Week Video Challenge "Highlighting Home," in which Peace Corps Volunteers captured examples of what home looks like in the host communities where they lived and worked. In Cambodia, close-knit families make a place a home. Watch this video to learn some Khmer words for family members.
