Welcome to the heart of Southeast Asia, where ancient wonders and resilient spirit converge—welcome to Cambodia.
Having visited many times over the years and lived and worked in Siem Reap twice, Cambodia holds a special place in our hearts. We even class it as our second home.
Cambodia isn’t just a destination; it’s a story unfolding—a tale of resilience, tragic history, and unwavering warmth found in its people and their smiles.
Many people only visit The Kingdom of Wonder for a few days to see the temples and maybe an island. But, Cambodia has much more to offer.
Join us in unravelling the layers of Khmer culture, where traditions paint the streets during Khmer New Year and the Water Festival.
Through our Cambodia blog posts, we navigate this captivating, yet complicated little country, exploring temples beyond the famous Angkor Wat and city lights of Phnom Penh.
We get off the beaten track in Cambodia. Bustling local markets, serene Mekong riverside, vibrant rice paddies, hidden temples, rural villages, beautiful Cambodian islands and more.
It’s almost guaranteed one visit won’t be enough – you’ll soon be back for more!
