Welcome to Cambodia

We high tailed it out of Vietnam to Siem Reap, Cambodia where we planned to see Angkor Wat. Cambodia was breath of fresh air. The people where happy to see us and the dollar really had legs - 75 cent beer and 4 hand massages for $10. That's right, 4 hand massages. The only thing better than a...

La velocidad y el tocino

Cuánto se tarda en recorrer 10 kilómetros en autobús? Pues en Camboya, unas 2 horas y media. Sobre todo si empieza a llover en mitad de un camino de tierra, y pasa ésto: Ése era el autobús que tenía que traernos de Kratie (o Kracheh, aquí todo tiene 3 o 4 formas de escribirse) a Ban Lung (o...

Y de repente, el Mekong

Con el Mekong nos hemos topado! Y hemos encontrado una habitacioncita con balcón para admirar la Vista... Seguimos camino hacia el norte, ya no nos separamos del Mekong, por él entraremos en Laos (junto con todos los peces clandestinos). Antes, Kratie y Ratanakiri, aunque estamos en la Camboya...

Es inútil matar un mosquito en mitad de la selva

Porque hasta la mitad de la selva nos hemos venido para visitar los templos de Angkor, orgullo de los camboyanos y símbolo del país. Como tal, plagado de guiris y autobuses turísticos. Para esta aventura, en nuestro afán de evitar taxis y timos varios, hemos recorrido unos 30 km diarios en unas...

The asphalt jungle

This city is absolutely insane! No fixed prices, no public transport, no traffic rules, no order in street numbering, lots of people spending the whole day in their pyjamas (I mean, driving, hanging out, shopping... everything)... This city is a lovely chaos in every sense. The most striking...

Yo soy rico de lo que no necesito

Resulta difícil explicar las sensaciones que nos asaltan desde que hemos llegado a Camboya, los sentimientos que se nos agolpan al entrar en contacto con esta gente, y ver sus vidas de cerca. Al igual que en Tailandia, la gente es increíblemente amable, dulce, educada y regala sonrisas a cada...

Cómo cruzar la frontera y no perder la fe en el intento

03.30- Nuria no puede dormir más y se levanta como una mosca loca a hacer cosas de aquí para allá. 04.00- Miriam se levanta para darse una duchita caliente (sí, caliente por primera vez en todo el viaje) antes de partir, pero no consigue despertar del todo. 04.30- Nos aventuramos a pillar un...

Beach + monsoon = book

Took a couple of buses down here from Siem Reap. Nice enough little town with some lovely beaches but I hit the bad weather. Was also thinking about maybe doing another scuba dive or 2 but i really need to save the money and the weather being crap made up my mind. So I sat and read my book...

Angkor Wat!!!!!

Sorry for the delay on this one I actually wrote a long article about Angkor 3 or 4 days ago then there was a power cut and the auto save on the blog failed to do what its supposed to!!! Cambodia is a doddle to travel in, its as flat as a pancake and the roads are wide. Bit harsh on the...
