Re: Introduce Yourself
Howdy everyone , I visited Phnom Penh last month, and I hope to return in December. In the meantime, I'm hoping to learn more and connect with others. Happy to have found this place!
Re: Introduce Yourself
Hi there.
I joined many years ago when Cambodia was on my radar, but for some reason it dropped off.
I'm due to retire to Thailand next month, but nobody is exactly sure how the ammendments to the tax law will affect people with an overseas income, and this is not a topic for discussion.
I'm using that as a great excuse to spend a month at a time in neighbouring countries, you know so I spend less than 180 days in Thailand and do not qualify as a tax resident, however that pans out.
I've probably been too fixated on Thailand over the years, I suppose because it was my comfort zone, and a potential love interest I had could fizzle out, not because of us, but family circumstances.
I'm being honest as well by saying probably a lot of my Thailand fixation was mongering, it was just so easy, but now I'm retiring, and about to hit that 60 mark, I should maybe be thinking of an alternative pathway to the end.
That's the introduction, now the questions.
In my initial month fact finding of probably Phnom Phen, and on recommendations I may go elsewhere, I will no doubt indulge in my mongering hobby, not all the time because of financial restrictions, but when the need arises, which to be fair is always, but I need to slow down!
I've done a bit of a search on guest friendly hotels in PP, and it seems there are quite a few at reasonable prices, but they seem to be lacking a gym and a pool, or maybe that's me not digging deep enough.
Retiring is hopefully a bit of a change of life for me, trying to take care of myself, so a gym and a pool, maybe even a sauna, will take a few hours of the day that could be sitting in a bar, and do me some good.
OK, that was a statement, not a question. So the question is, any recommendations for a guest friendly hotel in PP with a pool and a gym?
Next question, recommendations for the above in some other great Cambodian destination? I've heard Snooky has gone downhill, though I've never been there and Kam Pot is not a bad place.
Any advice would be welcome, or you could maybe point me to teh relevant forum to help answer my questions.
Cheers.

Re: Introduce Yourself
Play your hand ... anywhere is good ... but Cambodia has the best visa scheme, me thinks.

Oh yeah, the easy visa, perfect for all sorts of fuck-ups.Fridaywithmateo wrote: ↑Tue Feb 20, 2024 6:56 pm Play your hand ... anywhere is good ... but Cambodia has the best visa scheme, me thinks.
Just imagine how great it would be if you were actually (legally) married instead of not getting anything done in a continuous Ganzberg stupor.

Right now woman would suck him and dry and fly off to other men who are looking for right now.
The one for him would transform into every kind of woman he needs, make sure all his needs are satisfied before he even needs them. Even putting him in Ganzberg stupor for his satisfaction.

Re: Introduce Yourself
Hello everybody,
About me? I doubt anyone wants to read about my sh*ty and boring life.
But this life is going to change (at least for few weeks) as I’m going to become a barang/farang again. In order to change it for the better I’d like some questions about Cambodia to be answered.
Unfortunately the topic I made on CEO forum hasn’t been published. An example of what a terrible life I have!
Is there any admin or mod willing to review my topic on Cambodia After Dark and let it be viewed and (hopefully) answered?
Please do. I don’t want to spend my entire holiday singing in temples.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Re: Introduce Yourself
Ive been living on/off in South East Asia for the past 2.5 years, now looking to move permanently there. I am a content creator, photographer & videographer, have also done a bit of freelance journalism in my time and was wondering if there is any work for my services in the Kingdom of Cambodia available for an expat like me. Making new friends is a plus so if you are free to meet and chat I'd be more than willing to give you the time feel free to DM me any work/personal information.
