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.

City is a dump! Why, did you think they’d sleep with you for money because of your looks?

'City is a dump' of course it is but who cares about that when theres free weed , chicks and cheap booze !

Before you know it, you'd wake one day, burping Jameson, and realize you've spent the last 7 years here...
for a reason you can barely remember. So...
if you want to leave
flee right away, before she gets to you as well.
Welcome!

Re: Hotels in the redlight districts of Phnom Penh, Cambodia?
It continues to amaze me that many (most?) barangs come here (tourists and expats alike) and can't seem to get out of their home food.
I've always thought that one of the key attractions of visiting/living in an exotic asian country is to enjoy the local cuisine.. And it's not like khmer food is for many a challenge like perhaps thai food which is generally pretty chilli hot for westerners. Even at a fundamental level many expats I know seem to be averse to even eating rice as a starter...only bread/pasta/potatoes good for them..very limiting.
Go to places like Larrys, Lonestar, Garage bar, Brooklyn pizza, Cadillac (albeit managed by Irishman), Rising Sun et al and many american with brits and aussies thrown in. Go to french restaurants and its the same..mainly frogs. Chinese the same. A lot of brits go indian but that colonial hangover..
Why are ppl so stuck and not flexible? I just think they are missing out on a lot imo. I'm not advocating fully converting to asian/khmer food but personally the attraction for me here is the multitude of cuisines and I like to mix it up.
Anyway that's my rant for the day..
