Pictures From Angkor - Part 2

Hi back,
I'm still in Paris. I told you the transition wasn't easy.

I had to get used to the ridiculously expensive prices for pretty much everything.




So I've found a job so that I can afford to spend 450 bahts (10euros) for a not so good meal.




Anyway the topic of the post is "Pictures from Angkor Wat" so here is a sample of the pictures I took during my second trip to Angkor. The whole album is available here

Just click on the last pic to open the album.

Trip to Cambodia: Sihanouk Ville

The first part of our trip started in Cambodia.
Well, actually it started in Bangkok but we quickly left Bkk to go to Phnom Penh.


For several reasons among which was time we took the plane.

The cheapest company to fly from Bangkok to Phnom Penh (PP) is Air Asia, which is incidently the best low-cost company in southeast asia (for the prices I mean).


I have a philippino friend who lives in PP who tipped me on some useful details and send me a driver to pick us at the airport.

There is only one flight a day with Air Asia and it's at 7am so you better up quite early in the morning


Couple of hours later we took the bus to Sihanouk Ville, a city on the gulf of thailand with some beautiful beaches.

Oh btw choose the Mekong Express bus company, it's $2 more expensive for an overall "woopping" $6/person.

This trip is 3hours and for some yet-to-find reasons they have this b****y karaoke which is d**m loud. But if you have some in-ear headphones you will be fine (just like I was).


For the ghesthouses, on the Ocheutal beaches side, count $10-13 for a double room with AC (air conditioning) in a decent ghesthouse.
And do choose Ocheutal beaches, its the best side with a good standing.


If you want pics, its in the next post

Back for real this time

I've been away for quite a while.

I will cut it short. The 2weeks journey in Cambodia and in Laos is over. It was wonderful, I will dig the most interesting point in the coming posts.



I'm back in Paris for a month or so.

There is a topic I didn't think about before coming back on which I think it worth blogging. Its the adaptation needed when you come back to France after a long stay in Thailand.
Note that I say France and Thailand but it can be generalised to West Europe and Southeast Asia.


Thats all for the come-back thing.
Lets move to the most interesting part: the journey. See the next post
