R.A.T. Your Rodent Around-the-World Traveler (a.k.a. Raz)

Hi, My name is R.A.T., which stands for Rodent Around-the-World Traveler (I like to think it stands for Rodent Adventure Traveler), but everyone here calls me Raz for short. I would love to share my adventures with you. I left my rat family in early January to seek adventure. Everyone said "head west young rat," so that is what I did. I headed west to San Diego, California where I ran out of land and had to hop on a ship to continue my journey. It turns out that the ship I found was going west around the world--a dream come true! The MV Explorer is home to the famous Semester at Sea study abroad program. My shipmates include 629 college students and about 150 faculty, staff, lifelong learners, and family members. Things are really busy here on the ship and even busier when we are in port. Come follow me vicariously as I take this incredible journey. Yours, R.A.T.

P.S. I had such a great time on the voyage that the adventure continues!!!!

Cambodia - Adventures and Relaxation in Phom Penh

This is how we usually traveled in Cambodia--via a Tuk Tuk. I liked having the breeze in my fur!
One of our first stops was to the beautiful art deco market building designed by Louis Chauchon in Phnom Penh. I thought the ceiling looked like a giant sun!

After a hard day of sightseeing we stopped at the Foreign Correspondents Club. They say it is the only one in the world that not just reporters but anyone can visit (even a rat!).


And then we relaxed a bit in our hotel room, which had its own private swimming pool!
