Our border crossing into Cambodia was smooth- the opposite of the Laos fiasco!Cambodia was absolutely beautiful, as were the people. Phnom Phen: We stayed at a travellers' dream- the 'guest house' was a kind of floating shack with an old school wooden deck and totally basic rooms. The vibe there was really chilled and the Khmer people were so friendly. We spent a lot of time chilling on the decking over the lake at sunset sipping Angkok Beer- Paradise! We visi...

Hey guys I know we haven't written for aaaaaaaaaaages- we've been far too busy having fun! Bex and Rach are both writing these next couple of blogs as there's a lot to say! Hoi An: Absolutely beautiful old town with French style grand buildings and a river running through it. Just outside Hoi An is a lovely beach that we spent a few days sunbathing on. We had to get there on the back of scooters which was a lot of fun! Hoi An is known for its tailoring- there...

Hi Guys it's Rach, my turn to write the blog now.

Rach and I went on an 'adventure day' out which involved a 3hour long and gruelling mountain bike ride in the bl...

Hey again! I have a LOT to tell you since I last wrote... I left Bali about a week ago, was very sad to see Menna go :( but here's to the next year of travelling with a new buddy! Then I had a night in Malaysia with Rach's uncle and aunt. They put me up in a lovely hotel (hot shower and everything!) in Kuala Lumpur and I had an awesome dinner with them.
