That would be 'Life apostrophe s'.
Life is a beach = > Life's a beach.
Sorry, I'm bored.

Boredom is not an excuse for being a punctuation Nazi. I sentence you to one month of living in Otres Village on main street.
You could be next.

Why you chose to live in Otres village, i'm still trying to grasp. Just driving thru was enough for me.Cruisemonkey wrote: ↑Thu Jul 13, 2017 2:20 pm I sentence you to one month of living in Otres Village on main street.

It used to be a very different place 3 years ago. People like to say it's where all the people who got fed up with Goa went.shnoukieBRO wrote: ↑Thu Jul 13, 2017 2:33 pmWhy you chose to live in Otres village, i'm still trying to grasp.

But i was in Goa and it's not like i remember it.
That locals' village on the road has only existed for around five years. Built up on supplying businesses like Mushroom etc. It's grown almost as quickly as the beach and boratey village. The Sok family owns the lot. Well just about all the land one side of the village road and a fair bit on the other. They also own some of the beach. Like the last place on O2 before the river.
I had a place in the boratey village when it was relatively undeveloped. I decided it wasn't worth keeping it to live in as the place was chock a block in around six months of being there, and f running a busness there. Every boratey and his dog seemed to want to cash in on the tourist boom, so they built guesthouses. Loads and loads of them.
And the landlord, all the plots are rented but a very few, let people build right next to each other and didn't control the sewage at all. Mr Sok see crook!!
See crook!!!

As I said "No matter how much research you do, you never really know what a place is like until you arrive."
I need to 'kill the summer' and thought four weeks at Sok Sabay might be nice (it is)... but Otres Village isn't. Ninety-nine percent of the local expat eco hippy/barefoot earth's children (are they immune to hookworm?)/dreadlocked caucasian/hemp clothing-wearing/'man-fuckin'-bunned' barang morons are constantly stoned out of their minds. The unpaved roads are water-filled potholes & mud; and, the paved roads host an endless parade of giant trucks kicking up unbelievable clouds of thick, choking dust. I can't imagine what it's like in dry season!
Shoulda gone to Kep.
Oh well, off to Kampot in a couple of weeks and then on to Phu Quoc... Otres Village will soon be a distant memory (thank goodness).

Interesting. Let us know what you think of Kampot. I wasn't impressed by the place, or vibes there (yawn). It's another place full of Tourists and boring expats. Not my idea of a fun place either.Cruisemonkey wrote: ↑Fri Jul 14, 2017 3:22 pm

So you've been to Kep before?

Yeah, for three weeks last February after a cruise from Singapore to Bali, Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Phuket... and back to Singapore.
You could be next.

Sounds like Phu quoc will be a better choice, if you like quiet, maybe the Vietnamese Islands South 'con dao?' would suit you best(weather permitting) of course.
