Hidden Gems of Cambodia: Koh Rong Sanloem

Originally a quaint fishing island without too much racket, now it’s a paradise for expats and tourists. Actually, it’s especially popular among expats, to a degree where it’s become almost exclusive to them
"The aforementioned old lady is the place to get the stuff in M’pai bay. ... Naturally, we asked what kind of cookies are these and got the answer – HAPPY COOKIES!!!! While gesticulating with her arms all over the place. Later on we learned from the guy that ran our hostel that she’s “the man”
" One night we saw a guy with a rifle and flashlight search for something in a tree. About fifteen minutes later, we saw him come in the restaurant we were eating at with two giant bats in his hand, and surrendering them to the kitchen. Yikes."
"There are some things to be aware about the island though. For example, there are no doctors and the pharmacy works “occasionally” which basically means you’re fucked if you get sick, and we did get sick."
"Almost all of the restaurants are owned by expats. Food is decent and you can find both Khmer and Western dishes, though you have to be aware that hygienic standards aren’t that high, so there’s a high chance you might get food poisoning."
