  • Faces of Phnom PenhP.S. (= Pre-Script): I had made a mistake by regarding the river that runs alongside Sisowath Boulevard as Mekong River. It isn't actually. It's Tonle Sap River.

  • Phnom PenhPhnom Penh was not really my cup of tea. Too many cars and motorbikes hence too much pollution. Pedestrians are not respected at all, pavements are used for parking cars. Even the famous riverside area could not tempt me. There are a few Posted by Gitan Jean in Asia-América del sur | Nov 15, 2011

  • Sihanoukville!So for this week’s blog, unfortunately I’m not going to sound like an altruistic volunteer, but rather more like your image of the typical backpacker that comes to South-East Asia (try not to cringe!) This week we only had Posted by ljmac2 in South East Asia mark II | Nov 13, 2011
  • There's more to ANGKOR than ANGKOR WATThe Angkor monuments are mostly concentrated in an area 5-10km radius, north of Siem Reap. Ideally, at least two days is required to see the main sites.

  • Tarantulas, Temples, TEFL Training, Tuk Tuks and Toilets.I have been in Cambodia for two weeks now.

  • Siem Reap and the Angkor templesIf Pokhara was Disneyland, Siem Reap is worse but well, you cannot pay a visit to Cambodia without visiting the famous Angkor temples.
