Opium Dens ??? {Warning- long loading time}

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.

It almost certainly had nothing to do with the weed unless perhaps he was radically allergic to it or a piano fell on him after he took that first hit.

Nice phrase. Captures it well. Definitely not my buzz.

Sorry to drag up an old okd dinosaur thread,

But I've read/own all the books shown in this thread and I'm a collector. Opium antiques drew me to SEA to antique hunt, unsuccessfully I might add. Oddly enough China is buying them heavily currently.

Does anyone know where I may find some antiques or
paraphernalia here in PP?
