After leaving Kep we spent the whole day on a bus which was a bit crazy. The buses just drive as fast as they can (probably reach 50 mph at times) but when there is veicles coming in the other direction and only room for the width of one it gets a bit mental. The other things to avoid is the bloody Yaks (or really skinny cows). They just wander across the road so the driver did about 10 emergency stops along the way. After arriving in Siem Reap we decided after...

Another v. early morning and soon we arrived in Kep - a small sea side town which hasn't awoken in years. From here we caught a 'private' boat to Rabbit Island and after we had got on the driver seemed to invite the whole town along for the ride. Clearly the boat (which was really long and narrow) was not designed for the waves in the sea because we almost capsised several times and got absolutly soaked. Rabbit Island was amazing. Hopefully you can see the pic...

We arrived in Kampot yesterday and found a sleepy town that clearly doesn't get many tourists.

We booked a tour to see the Bokor National Park for today - the tour including a visit to the abandoned hill station. The tour began thismorning at 8 and we were soon 'off'-roading' up a d...

Arrive in Sihanoukville 30/4. It is right on the coast and the hostel we stayed in was about 1 min walk - Billiant! The first night we walked down to the beach and sat in a cool bar with swinging seats and jazzy music. The Beach is lined with Cafes and bars and has a really nice feel to it. We then proceeded to spend the next 3 days on the beach! Enjoying the sea and afternoon naps - hard work all this relaxation. We met up with some people we met in Vietnam wh...

As soon as we came into Cambodia you could see the difference compared to Vietnam. The country side was really green, however not as crowded as Vietnam. It was also a lot more developed that we though it would be. Phnom Penh was a lot different to what we thought it would be like. So many people have told us how poor cambodia is, however, the city was quite built up. A lot of the buildings were really nice surrounding by well kept gardens. Although some of the...
