    Top 10 Things To Do In Cambodia

    August 3, 2013

    In the order that I remember them. 1. Get a Blind Massage This is definitely an experience. No pampering, no fuss, just exactly what it says on the sign. A massage by a blind masseur. 60 minutes for $5. A few dollars for a good cause to help the blind make a living working instead of on the street. Don’t let the dirt road alleyway entrance or lack of English deter you. Where: Seeing Hands 4 in Siem Reap. There are Seeing Hands franchises in Phnom Penh, and Sihanoukville too. 2. Visit Angkor Wat at the Angkor Archaeological Park. These 900 year old ruins are a spectacular sight. You can…

    May 25, 2013

    Went to see the famed Angkor Archaeological Park, north of Siem Reap, today. Full update to come. Some things we noticed. – People climbing on top of ruins to get that ‘one, special, must-have photo’ to prove they came to the temples. – People climbing over roped off areas, to stand on ruins to get that ‘one, special, must-have photo’ to prove they came to the temples. – People shouting/yelling at their friends in front of ‘no shouting/yelling’ signs. – People blatantly littering. – Girls not getting the memo about covering your shoulders and knees when entering the temples.
