De retour dans notre cher Phnom Penh ! Ca me fait trop plaisir :) Petit passage dans la capitale pour repartir de plus belle vers le Nord-Ouest et Battambang dans 2 jours. Cette fois, on loge en plein centre-ville. Je recommande fortement la Capitol Guesthouse. Marche, marche, marche. En face de la Poste, on a vu un lacher de singe dans la ville...

Hello Mercredi fut 1 journee assez particuliere car ct peut etre me derniere journee a l'orphelinat et je suis assez emu de quitter peut etre pour toujours les enfants. Comme d'habi ils ne voulaient pas faire grand chose et surtout ils souffraient de la chaleur ( je pense ke ct ma journee la plus chaude depuis ke je suis a PP). J'en ai donc prof...

After a six hour boat ride (glad we took the fast boat!), we arrived to Phnom Penh in a downpour! We wore our ponchos over our backpacks and made our way down the flooding street as tuk tuk drivers stared with grins and offered us rides. We made it about 2 blocks before we stopped to eat at a tourist restaurant. Pizza and carrot soup. We went to...

If I thought I was properly poorly yesterday I was wrong, today I woke up even worse. Boo!! I've got a really bad cold, probably the worst one I've had on the trip. Thanks to my Sister's emergency parcel sent at Christmas I've been able to dose up on cold tablets, throat sweets and Benilyn. After a great cooked brekkie (feed a cold and all that!...

Our last morning in Vietnam was spent of a little wooden boat being taking around the last of the lower Mekong to visit a fish farm and then a Cham minority village. While we were eating lunch yesterday this old man came up to me trying to sell me something. He had a basket of mixed stuff like bracelets, tissues, nuts. He was really friendly and...

We departed Bangkok at 6am this morning on Bangkok Airlines. The flight took about 1 1/2 hours to get here. Clearly customs was very nervous, as we had to surrender our passports for about 10 minutes so they can check us out. I was VERY happy to get out of the airport and to our hotel. Were staying at The Riverside Hotel which is on the bank of ...

Ja, wir sind wieder zurueck in Phnom Penh. Noch vier weitere Wochen in der Hauptstadt, die sicher nicht langweilig werden: Kuechenkrams besorgen, Moebel gucken, Mobil werden (Motorrad und/oder Toyota Camry) Visa verlaengern... Das VIP-Vorbereitungszentrum im Partnerland des DED ist OK. Die Stadt trotz des Staubes gut auszuhalten und spannend. Na...

We got a bus to Phnom Penh very early in the morning, and we were told it was supposed to leave at 7.30am. We arrived at the bus station and sat on a very hot and sticky bus for an hour and a half until they decided to go, as it seemed they were waiting for it to fill up. The bus driver got in and promptly went to sit in one of the seats, put hi...
