Introduce Yourself

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.

There's a nut bag* that posts to the FB expat groups in all caps and goes right off when anybody comments. Swears he's using an old phone that doesn't have lower case letters. Some mates of mine troll him quite beautifully.

The hostess bar is Cool n Cozy on 118 near the river. We've been open for about two years after we took over for a previous bar that was there. 118 has picked up quite a bit of steam since we opened, with like 4 new hostess bars opening on the same block as us in the last year. It's no 136 yet, but I think it's will be catching up to 104 before long.
How much does a hostess bar on 118 make per month.. Curious
I'll give ya 500 Riel for it...

I visited Cambodia and South East Asia 6 years ago with the wife. Now that she and I have parted ways last year, I thought why not come back and have a look again. There is not much tempting back to the UK. I found this site via Facebook. I hope I can make some friends and draw on your experiences.
