Koh Rong, it happens to the best of us.. The initial plan of staying for only a few days turns into an invisible bind to the most capturing place I've been to yet! I had to drag myself away after 16 days. I could easily get carried away explaining about my time in Koh Rong but I'm sure I'd end up with savvier finger cramps so I'm just going to reveal all the highlights.

We had front row seats whilst on the mini van to Vientiane and it was savage seeing so clearly how they drive out here.
