It's day #30 today; one month in, two to go! We got up casually, showered and drank tea by the riverside while lounging in a hammock. After checking out of 'Olly's place' we headed into Kampot town and grabbed an amazing breakfast! 3*boiled eggs and soldiers cooked to perfection with tasty real butter, 3 banana pancakes with chocolate, and a juicy local fruit platter. The deal breaker was the pot of tea, Twinnings English breakfast with fresh milk!!! We jumped...

Today unfortunately was time to leave Koh Rong Island. We could have stayed here for a lifetime but, with the fear of missing out on what is around the corner and knowing we don't have forever to travel, we decided to head down the coast of the main land to Kampot. Lunch was had during a brief downpour back in Sihanoukville with Ben and Shanndara, followed by farewells as they headed for the capital, Phnom Penh. While waiting for our local taxi to gain some mor...

"It's just another day, in paradiiiise" LOVE a bit of Phil Collins! I think Phil wrote this song whilst hanging out on Long Beach on Koh Rong Island in Cambodia lol.

After a long and good nights sleep we were up naturally at the crack of dawn. The sun was out and only with a few scattered clouds. With the weather looking to be on our side we made the decision to get out of nookville (as its nicknamed) and jump onboard the 8am boat to Koh Rong Island. 2.5hours later we docked at the tiny peer on Koh Rong Island. Koh translates to 'Island', and I can only guess Rong translates to 'Awesome'!! Turquoise waters and miles of whit...

The sleep was good on our night bus. I woke up at 10.30pm and at 3am both as the bus had stopped for toilet breaks, then for good at 7am. With only an easy hour to go, we watched the sun rise from our 60mph bedroom until we arrived in the sea-side town of Shianokville. First call as always was to get a room for the night. As always the Tuk-Tuk driver dropped us off at his favourite 'commission based' guesthouse; no good! So the search for home begins. We fou...
