I am very dubious about claims of loss of large sums of money, often thousands of dollars, by anyone. Who carries such sums? They must be either very, very wealthy or very, very stupid!

I visited PP in late March and, following earlier advice from this site, thought some feedback observations might be helpful. I stayed in the Tao Hotel on the corner of Riverside and Street 144 and found it very nice, perhaps a bit basic but air conditioned, spacious, cheap, great balcony overlookin...

In an earlier thread I started I received advice that using dating sites could be a good way of meeting a girl in Cambodia. I did try this, alas without much success!

Can I confidently assume the tuktuk drivers and girls I may meet in Cambodia will have personal card readers?

I think most people, men and women, go to Cambodia for Ankor Wat. I did as did my partner and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Why go a second time? More history and an experience of Street 130 and others in PP. Not sure what ex-partner is up to; maybe she’s in Nana as I type?
