Siem Reap and the Floating Temples

Sun, 4 Oct 2009 | By alistair | Views [1648]

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 windscreen and almost out of hearing of the horn and the karaoke ... Read more >

Siem Reap

Sat, 10 Mar 2007 | By whitneyj | Views [1134]

Heading north out of Phnom Penh we traveled through the heart of Cambodia on our way to Siem Reap. Small homes amongst vast farmlands dotted with a few towns along the way. The poverty of the country is well apparent. But in contrast to the trash ... Read more >

Phnom Penh - just passing through

Sun, 20 Sep 2009 | By alistair | Views [1109]

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 >

No Reindeer in This Sleigh

Sun, 16 Dec 2007 | By stephhef | Views [1107]

I weaved amongst the vendors selling live fish, frogs, eels, turtles and dead chickens, socks, children’s clothes, and monks accepting alms. The market by my house is one of my favorite places, especially at 5 a.m. There is something about the ... Read more >

Sonnenaufgang bei Angkor Wat

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 | By lukas_patricia | Views [900]

Um 4 Uhr rappelt der Wecker und wir duschen, leider nur kalt. Dafür sind wir wirklich wach, als wir gegen 4:45 Uhr wegfahren. Der Bus bringt uns zur Hauptpforte von Angkor Wat, die wir im Morgengrauen durchschreiten und mit unseren Stativen Position ... Read more >

Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Mon, 29 Mar 2010 | By kaitieandcaroline | Views [768]

Kaitie and Caroline, being the geniuses that they are, arrived in the scariest country yet with no accomodations booked! They stepped out of the airport in the early evening and had various offers for transportation into the city. They finally settled ... Read more >

Farewell Battambang

Fri, 3 Feb 2012 | By lesleyandjan | Views [678]

Unbelievably over 6 months have passed.  So it is with sadness we prepare to leave Battambang.  We will have great memories of the kids, swimming, the countryside and the people we have met. But time to move on.  Next week we go to Sihanoukville ... Read more >

The other side of Cambodia

Mon, 20 Jul 2009 | By hopperq | Views [584]

After our Tour de Angkor we spent 2 nights in Phnom Penh.  Overall, it was a depressing experience.  We visited the Genocide Museum, or Killing fields, which is the site of many mass graves from the Khmer Rouge regime.  From there, we went straight to ... Read more >

Bumping Around Cambodia, Literally!

Mon, 26 May 2014 | By cfitchey | Views [503]

A few surprising things about Cambodia. I had heard the rumor, but I'm still surprised it's really true. You can use US dollars in almost all places here, although sometimes you get change in riel, which is the Cambodian currency. So crazy to be using ... Read more >

Phnom Penh

Wed, 29 Jul 2015 | By ymoughton | Views [483]

One thing that really bugs me about travelling is getting hounded by tuk tuk/motorbike/taxi drivers as soon as you get off the bus in a new place. They are like bees round a honey pot and don't like to take no for an answer. Even though the likelihood ... Read more >

There are so many positive things happening here in Cambodia. I am learning more and more about different NGOs serving in this beautiful nation aiming at empowering the poor and disabling the exploitation that is promoting poverty. I was so happy ... Read more >

Tue, 8 Jan 2013 | By aliahjan | Photo Gallery | Scholarship Entry

I am one person who believes in dreams and will never give up. As a child I wanted to be a world famous photographer and I still do. Due to poverty, I never studied further beyond secondary school despite getting a scholarship from a university in UK.... Read more >
