New type expats moving to Cambodia
from FB:
Hey ya’ll!
I’m looking for a job in the kitchen Kampot/Phnom Penh way.
I have experience in Western/Mediterranean (including Italian) and modern cuisine, - and am keen to learn more about SEA/Khmer food!
I really want to work in Cambodia as a f&b attandent
Hey there! I'm from America, and I plan on moving to Cambodia when I turn eighteen (next summer), and I'd appreciate some advice! I have always wanted to experience living in another country, and I think I've finally chosen the one.I'm thinking about getting TEFL certification, and teaching English, would you recommend this?
Hello everyone .
I plan to come to Cambodia in September earliest, in order to settle and work. I have professional experience in photography and hospitality.
Hello everyone, I recently moved to Phnom Penh. What is the best way to go about finding English teaching jobs? Are there any English centers where you can submit your Cv or do you go from school to school?
Is Cambodia safe ?
I am moving to pp in the summer. I need help finding the follow things
1. Khmer language lesson
2. Dance instrutor for salsa
3. Best sushi resturant
4. A goid tailor
Hi, I am looking for a place to do my online work in peace and quiet.
I need a room with nothing more than a table and chair.
It absolutely must be quiet between 9am and 1pm Mon-Fri (I do not need longer).
Main requirements are that it is in the Russian market or IDEALLY Boeung Tumpun area and is deathly silent.
PM me if you have anything that might suit.(I am willing to rent a small room monthly if it meets this criteria)

Re: New type expats moving to Cambodia
Maybe I'm wrong, but it sounds a lot like some recycled middle aged dreamers, nothing at all like us old farts.

Deathly silent? He's got the wrong country. The noise pollution here is unstoppable.

Re: New type expats moving to Cambodia
We've actually clamped down on this type of job seeking on PPJA - "I'm wonderful (my mum tells me so) and I want a high-paying job, even though I have little or no saleable skills, and I want you all to bring the information to me, filtered and prioritised." We just delete the posts out of hand, without explanation, and if anyone complains I suggest they a) read the job ads, and b) go home to mum. The longer I'm here, the lower my tolerance for snowflakes.

Re: New type expats moving to Cambodia
But never forget how it is for someone who just arrived. They are clueless but usually mean well. I have to remind myself how I was when I first stepped foot in Cambodia. It helps me have more patience with those who just arrived. Not always easy though!StroppyChops wrote:We've actually clamped down on this type of job seeking on PPJA - "I'm wonderful (my mum tells me so) and I want a high-paying job, even though I have little or no saleable skills, and I want you all to bring the information to me, filtered and prioritised."

Re: New type expats moving to Cambodia
Sure, and you kinda feel for the obviously clueless ones - it's the ones that arrive with a sense of entitlement and attitude to back it up that irritate me.Jacobincambodia wrote: ↑Thu May 10, 2018 6:58 pmBut never forget how it is for someone who just arrived.

You tyrant! I would be so much more understanding and lenient.

Re: New type expats moving to Cambodia
I know you were making a joke but always truth in humor so was curious. I wasn't positive but did you mean the difference between the middle aged dreamers and the old farts-- that the old farts are retired/semi retired?
