Hi all, Today is the 17th January and I am in Phnom Penh for just today, as tommorrow fly out at 9am to Bangkok - Thailand (country no 8) Just chilled today really, got up late, watched some tv (how sad is that) and then into town shopping for a few new tops (not all black this time Quaylie!) and coffee and eats. Then caught up with e-mails and blog and for this evening going to go out for dinner and an early night. sounds boring I know, but I want to be fully ...

Hi....you have to laugh or else you would cry. After a day and a half in bed, I decided with only 1 full day left I simply had to go and finish seeing the temples of Angkor. I mean, I have travelled this far and was not going to be put off just by a few cuts and bruises.

Fantastic ride and I reckon that I saw more sights in one day that will stick in my memory fro life that any other day on my travels so far. Just a shame on the bike you cant take photos like on a coach, but you do see the places coaches would never get to.....so just a snapshot of the day fo...

Hi all, Left Sihanoukville relatively early and set off down the coast road. Beautiful weather and stunning scenery. Cambodia is mainly flat inland, but around the caost you have tropical mountains and little fishing ports and islands off the coast. A beautiful 3 hour ride towards Kampot (where lots of pepper comes from) I did get to the Bokor Hill National Park, but it was a trail dirt road 2 hours up and 2 hours back to get to the station and after 3 hours, ...
