What do you mean the bridge is out??!!
This is a top pick! The journey back to Bangkok wasn't something we were looking forward to, especially after the journey to Siem Reap was so awful. When we eventually got out of bed we found a taxi rank in the centre of town full of touts trying to rip us off for the ...
Off to Banteay Chhmar, can we go by car...?
This is a top pick! ... we almost had to promise the guy we would be visiting the Angkors eventually before we could board the bus! The scenery in Cambodia is unspectacular but very pleasant, its roadsides littered with lily ponds and small farms and the air is filled with ...
scammed!
... when you have been travelling for a year this money means so much and could have been more then a few weeks accommodation in Cambodia. We were absolutely kicking ourselves. We got a bus from Bangkok through a legitimate company and had booked a top rated ...
Foerste dag i Cambodia
Saa er jeg kommet til Cambodia, og sidder nu et et lille hul i jorden ca. 55km fra graensen. Forskellen mellem Thailand og Cambodia kunne ses inden for sekunder, lige pludselig var vejen vaek og det var bare huller med lidt grus omkring...aldrig har jeg ...
A funeral in Thailand!
Whats up folks, long time no see! This entry is actually several in one. Recently I went to Tak which is in the North of Thailand near Chiang Mai but I did not write a separate entry about my trip so I will include it with this one. one of my Thai ...
Tales of dirt and deceipt
Hey people I'm currently sitting in an internet cafe in Sisophon, a dusty little town in western Cambodia. The layers of dirt covering my body have given me a nice brown tan, which unfortunately will come off when i shower, exposing me as the pasty ...

Back to Thailand via a broken bridge!!
The journey back to Bangkok wasn't something we were looking forward to, especially after the journey here was so awful. When we eventually got out of bed we found a taxi rank in the centre of town full of touts trying to rip us off for the journey back. ...
Crash!
... four hour journey to Sisophon to see the last temple outside of Siem Reap, of Banteay Chhmar. Finding an English speaker in Sisophon proved to be quite difficult, so after walking around for half an hour with fifteen kilograms on my back - I eventually ...
My travel luck is changing. It's really changing
The day I'd been waiting for had finally arrived. By the end of today I was gonna be supping a bottle of Chang beer on the veranda of a hut on the beach. I've really enjoyed all the travelling around from place to place, seeing new things, meeting new ...
Sisophon and an Angkor Temple
... an eventful bus journey - with the clutch going just after leaving Phnom Penh we arrive tired and exhausted in the one horse town of Sisophon (we think the horse was on holiday as well). 3 hotels in the guide book - so headed for the Crown hotel - clean ...
Travelling on to Cambodia
... 3 blokes in the back (not small ones at that). The 2hr 30 journey was on the same kind of road as the one to Sisophon - potholes! as we were going along we witness a car in the river and everyone stood around scratching their heads how to get it ...
pajamas as day wear..a look that should catch on!
Sooo..we've arrived safely in Cambodia (after negotiating a series of buses and public transport!) We feel very proud because we managed to cross the border without any necessity for the usually obligatory bribe. Our research paid off, as our guide ...
Painful border crossing
I'd heard that the border crossing into Cambodia can be painful and it lived up to it. Things actually got annoying in Bangkok as I had paid for a shared taxi for the Cambodian leg but was told in the morning that it wasn't possible. As the agency i'd ...
helvedes bus og SCAMS GALORE
God morgen.. Dagen startede tidligt, med at blive klemt ind i en meget, meget fyldt minibus og så gik turen ellers mod grænsen til Poi Pet. Det er bestemt ikke en fordel at være 199 høj hernede, for busserne er ikke lavet til min slags. Efter ...
Happy Birthday to Me
We arrived in Sisophon at about 2pm having left Bangkok at 7.30 (8.30am actually by the time we got going) and stayed at the Golden Crown Guesthouse ( tel: 054 95 84 44, fax: 054 710 578). The place was pretty big. I'd call it a hotel rather than a ...
