Traffic is pretty slow and once you get used to it it's pretty convenient to drive one. But... For safety, b...

Re: Life in Stung Treng
You can get really good dried meats at the market, nice sausage. That's about it. The times I've been there I was the only honkie in the village, didn't see any signs of other foreigners.
