The Khmer Rouge – Phnom Penh

July 31, 2014 by LucyRose, posted in Asia, Cambodia

The coach journey to Phnom Penh turned out to be a VERY local bus. We made many stops, and there was no rush at all to make it to the city. We were the only tourists and no one spoke English, making life a tiny bit difficult when someone threw up on the bus and … Continue reading The Khmer Rouge – Phnom Penh

Last days in Siem Reap – Silk and Angkor

True or not it made the day a lot nicer. … Continue reading Butterflies and Landmines

We arrived in Siem Reap mid-thunder-storm at around 6:30 pm to a crazy looking hostel. Its a pretty basic room, with mozzie nets and a fan but it works fine for us! We just threw our bags down, locked up valuables and then headed straight out to find a tuk tuk to take us to … Continue reading Kantha Bopha
