Battambang
is the second largest city in Cambodia
and not at all tourist orientated. It’s such a pleasure to not be hounded for massage,
tuk-tuk, motorcycle etc. Walking around town I actually get stared at. Either
because I’m so devilishly handsome ... Read more >

We took a super long bus ride from Siem Reap to Kratie (Kratchey) and it turned out there was so little to do there that even a tour guide said, "I can get you on the first bus out of here tomorrow morning!" We stayed an extra day though and ... Read more >

Having
learned my lesson on the bus trip up from Sihanoukville to Phnom Penh, I paid a little extra for my
ticket to Siem Reap and found a seat further back, out of sight of the front

It seems
that everything passes through Phnom
Penh, so I was back in the city for a few days before
heading further north.
The drive
up from Sihinoukville was interesting. I was on a much cheaper bus than the one
I went down on and as ... Read more >

This country is so beautiful. When even the 6 hour ride North from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap on a non-air-conditioned dirty cramped bus can be enjoyable if you spend the whole time staring out the window. I think the most apt word would be 'enchanting.... Read more >

Sihanoukville
is apparently the closest place that Cambodia has to a typical resort
town, but it still has some way to go to emulate the Thai beach resorts (I’m
not saying that that’s a bad thing). There are a mix of relatively unspoilt
beaches ... Read more >

FYI Phuket is pronounced Pooket. Thai's don't recognize 'ph' as the 'f' sound. Lol. So Phnom Penh eh? Not a particularly nice city, though the food was good and dirt cheap. Cheap as in we've yet to spend over $10 total for two huge meals and 4 beers.... Read more >

When I flew in to Phnom Penh I was amazed at the scale of the monsoon flooding. There was water as far as you could see. The river banks and settlements were raised high enough to see them but there was water everywhere. I was worried that we were ... Read more >

Since I last wrote, a lot has happened, including pretty much every form of transport and entry into a whole new country! Right now I am sat in the capital city of Cambodia (Phohm Pehn) and watching children playing in the monsoon puddles in front of ... Read more >

World Nomads failed to mention the limit on uploading photos, which was reached well over a month ago. Most recent photos (i.e. rest of Vietnam, Camdbodia, and soon China) can be found at shutterfly. I will update the links to find the photos and put ... Read more >

The last few days have been brilliant. The Mekong Delta tour was a bit of a disappointment as it rained heavily and for a boat trip we seemed to spend a lot of it on buses! It was still enjoyable though. We finished up in Saigon which was brilliant. ... Read more >

Tuesday we were on our way to breakfast when we were told the director's grandfather (not actual grandfather but the man who looked after him when he was orphaned as a child) had died. He had died at 5am and at 7am all the kids from the orphanage and ... Read more >
