Both places can damage you equally.

I prefer Battambang, not too many tourist to annoy you and enough expats to have a beer and chat with...

To answer my own question months later... sihanoukville is a no. The islands are amazing but just for a little visit.

Siem reap was alright, but everyone who said Phnom Penh I agree with, there's more blatant poverty there but apart from that, seems like the best choice of the three, easily. Haven't been to any other cities tho...curious about battambang, maybe I'll check it out

I think that if not living in a quiet country side city, it's not worth living far from the beach...

What is a "quiet country side city"?
Silence, exile, and cunning.

I like side cities.
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

I like side salads.
Water quenches the thirst, alcohol releases the truth.
