Cambodia

I spent the past four weeks in Thailand and Cambodia, and didn’t go to Indonesia as I had originally planned. Find out why and what else went wrong in March…

This week I returned to my favorite place in Cambodia: the sleepy riverside town of Kampot. I just love the laid-back atmosphere and slow pace of life in rural Cambodia!

I spent my last week in Cambodia on the glorious beaches in the south. Otres Beach remains my favorite one, and I enjoyed a few wonderfully lazy beach days there.

Who knew that French baguettes were so popular in Cambodia? Even though the French left over 50 years ago, there are daily baked baguettes in the markets everywhere. Ooo la la!

We spent a few days in Sihanoukville last week and truly felt like we were on vacation! The main reason for this was our excellent hotel, the Beach Club Resort.

We arrived in Cambodia last weekend and spent our first few days in the town of Battambang, where we learned that coconuts are everywhere!

After 6 months, we finally found a tropical island in South East Asia that boasts the serene,white-sand beaches we have been dreaming about on Koh Rong, Cambodia – but we had to work to get there!

After over six months in South East Asia, we finally made it to Angkor Wat last week. Find out what impressed us the most here at the world’s biggest religious site.
