We got a 5 hour Bus journey to Phnom Penh from HCMC (1 NIGHT) We visited the Tuol Sleng Museum of Genocide (S-21 )which is a former high school that was converted into the detention and interrogation centre where from 1975-1979 roughly 20,000 Cambodians were executed by the Khmer Rouge. Political enemies suspected of treason were brought here and tortured for confessions. Only seven prisoners survived. We also went to the 'Killing Fields' where more than 17,000 c...

(4 NIGHTS) very similar to Luang Prabang in Loas, so we loved it! Lots of good shopping here, and we spent Tara's 24th birthday here to! I spent money i shouldn't have on a fake!

Nha Trang would have been perfect as a beach resort if and that's a BIG IF the weather was nicer! As we didn't really have th...

Internet in Vietnam and Cambodia wasn't really up to much so haven't really been able to upload pictures or update blog...and at the moment we're in Bali, so having to much fun and sun to update properly so i'm afraid the review of southern Vietnam and Cambodia will be very brief as we have surf to catch !!!! yes we do.....so Hoi An - Cute little town, lots and lots of shops making made to measure clothes for next to nothing. Very petty, the japanese bridge, lo...
