We arrived at our hotel for the stay in Phnom Penh, Homeland Guesthouse, very helpful staff who immediately helped us with arranging our tourist visa for Vietnam ($63 USD) however we had arrived on a weekend so it would not be ready until the Tuesday evening but this didn't matter too much as we had quite a bit we wanted to do in Phnom Penh. We hadn't planned to do too much on our first day other than we had booked tickets to see Jurassic World in 4DX (a first f...

Arriving in Siem reap, our hotel was little further out from the centre than we had hoped so we shared a tuk tuk with anothe...

Leaving Bangkok Early start this morning to catch the train to Aranyaprathet, it was a six hour journey along the rickety train line with lots of people from all walks of life, travellers, locals, families, market sellers with all sorts of bags of fruits and veg (one even brought their own cockroach aboard haha) once we arrived at Aranyaprathet we then caught a 100baht tuktuk to the border, seemed a lot easier than we first thought, pretty well signposted too.
