Dinner on the town Siem Reap
On Pub Street, where else! And the market, street food and more When we went 'out for dinner' we ended up at a street vendor, by the busy, bustling if dark, park with locals and tourists alike! The noodles we got were cheap and delicious, we sat at the park edge finding a seat with …
Meet ups around the world!
Siem Reap was hot in the daytime, warm at night and always busy and bustling. About a 30 minute walk from the hostel, I eventually found my way which Patrick tested me on as we walked back, because I'd said I always got lost and rarely able to get my bearings easily wherever I travelled! …
Discovering Siem Reap
Much more than just the city to visit Angkor Wat ... This, for me, is what travelling is about - meeting people, making connections, making new friends and contacts and learning about other cultures. And here I certainly have!! Some people make an impression for different reasons, some you bond with, have a deeper connection …
Tonle Sap boat trip to Siem Reap
It was a new way to travel for me here, and one again discovered on researching the internet for ideas and transport information. It wasn’t cheap but OK, and probably easier than the roads and buses! It was a long day and so hot, on a noisy, smoky boat with other tourists but we did …
A tourist in Phnom Penn
Just been on a town tour by very reasonably priced tuk tuk or remork, such a mix of old and new, rich and poor, wats more numerous here again with people, cars and bikes vying for space on the 6 lane boulevards to two lane dusty roads. Noise, colour, balcony life and street life everywhere …

Going home …May 2016
I've been away 10 months now and I've had enough of the effort of backpacking! Just to be in one place, the same bed, and open a wardrobe for clothes and fridge for breakfast will be heaven! I've loved every minute - well, most minutes! But now, my head, my heart and my soul are …
Sugar Loaf Mountain
Raining again! Going up by cable car, it was dull but the views were of course great! Almost fully glass we all got views in a crowded car, taking photos, smiling at each other as we moved around to get shots from all sides! Once there, you walk around the flagged walks to the restaurant-bar, …
