Been here a week. What an overpriced shithole.

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Been here a week. What an overpriced shithole.

Been here a week. Trying to get away from fucking $6 fucking dollar fried rice I go to the Burger King. On the way I stop at s shop for a haircut. The cunt charged me $8!!! In the states have never paid more than $6. Note the photo. This is what you get for $6.50 at Burger King. They call it a double cheeseburger and bacon. What you get is what is actually a “Slider” or mini-Burger. Note the ketchup packet for size reference. Then there was the tuktuk fucker. Ride’s finished, I pay him from inside the tuktuk. I get out, start walking, and no shit—the fucking driver drives up to me and says I didn’t pay him. I was dumbfounded. Told him I literally just paid you 10 seconds ago. He says i must have paid someone else. Seriously. Don’t even get me started on why fucking weed is more expensive than cocaine here. Seriously, this place is a shit stain with 75 year old ladyboy fucking meth heads. Christ.

How long are you staying? And can you start posting daily accounts, please?

For some reason I get a kick out of reading tourist rants.

$6. fried rice? What did it have in it, caviar? You are in need of guidance from a long term expat.

$2 for a meal with bottomless rice is easily available.

Tuk tuk is under $2 pretty much anywhere with Passapp.

Hair cut is less than $2.

Total bulls hit from the OP...

..well either that or a naive tourist first time in the third world.

I await his tales of encounters with ladies from girly bars.

Haircut $1-3, $5 to clueless tourists...$8 to...

as for the tuk tuk driver, he probably saw how clueless you are and fancied his chances :ROFL:
