So basically I love cambodia. The trip here was easy peasy and we saw so much of rural thailand and cambodia. Siem Reap is really small and everyone is really friendly. Stayed in a nice hotel last night but have moved tonight to somewhere a bit closer ... Read more >

Friday 26 June - Roasting day today, for a change (!). We kicked off the day around 11 or 12 and headed in toward Gaudi's La Sagrada Familia cathedral. It's quite a touristy spot there with queues stretching around the corner to get inside, so we ... Read more >
