Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Presumably balconies in this case, and for a start you don't build retarded balcony fences that can be climbed by a 5yo, check the pictures. This design would be forbidden in a developed country respecting construction standards.General Mackevili wrote:And there's not a whole lot you can do to stop people from falling out of windows, really.
I did a vertical design myself in my building stairway but upon completion I realized my architect had not respected french standards leaving gaps of up to 20cm between bars so we had to add one more bar in every space as a very little child could have easily slipped in the gaps and fall from a height of up to half a floor.

You would think [ This design would be forbidden in a developed country respecting construction standards ] but my home town, the Gold Coast , it is a common practice to get drunk and climb out over the balcony. Happens every year on '' schoolies holiday ''

I would strongly suggest she be given a room on the ground floor upon her return.Bitte_Kein_Lexus wrote:Or maybe no more beers for her...?

Re: Drunk American Backpacker Rachel Marie Worthy Falls from Funky Flashpacker in Siem Reap
According to someone on Facebook, this same thing happened last year in Siem Reap:
"I hope she is in the Royal Angkor International Hospital. The last girl that did this (somewhere else in Siem Reap for the same reason, last year) was told she had fractured her shoulder by a local clinic she'd been taken to. After she was relocated to the RAIH they discovered 3 fractured vertebrae. She was airlifted to Bangkok Hospital where 7 more were discovered. She's lucky she can now walk but if she'd been left where she was almost certainly would not be.
That was the Australian girl who fell off the roof at Mad Monkey Hostel in Siem Reap on January 1, 2015:

It's practically raining drunk backpackers in Siem Reap.

Would definitely be worth her getting a thorough check up and probably an MRI as well, I reckon.
