I really want to give you a hug - you're awesome . <3Luigi wrote:Not a case of one-upmanship. I recall my dear departed mother consistently asking me at the tender age of 6 yrs. old why can't I be normal, like all the other kids. It all started in 1st. grade when they had changed the Pledge of Alligiance to include God. I refused & was sent home with a note.
Then later in FORCED Sunday school when repeatedly kept confronting the teach about this guy walking on water. I was a skeptic. Soon after I was exempted from Sunday school. It just deteriorated from there.
Later in the begining of my teen years I was secluded in a gated community to keep the general public safe from my anarchic thoughts & deeds. There I met many other ''incorrigibles'' & therefore shaped my world view today.
I would encourage all to never be normal. Whatever the fuk that is.

Rent from $350 in Cambodia Leaves Plenty of Money for Expat Activities
By Steven King
25 June 2017
Wherever you are in the world, rent tends to fall into two categories; either an outrageous burden or a relative joy.
In Cambodia paying rent is definitely not a burden thanks in no small part to the reasonably priced properties that are available for expats in places like Phnom Penh and Sihanoukville.
A retiree friend of mine pays just $350 a month for an apartment which comes with its own balcony. It is fully furnished and air-conditioned with one bedroom, one bathroom, kitchen, and living room. It’s the perfect size for a retired person and he spends half his time happily sitting out on the balcony watching the world go by.
In Phnom Penh, the rent on a decent apartment will cost between $350 to $600 a month, plus an additional $75 to $125 for utilities including electricity, water, private garbage disposal, and cable television.
However, if you head down to the coastal resort of Sihanoukville you will spend even less. Western-style apartments range from $200 upwards while two-bedroom houses with gardens can cost about $100 or so more. This means the monthly average cost for all your property expenses can be as low as $300.
With rent as affordable, there’s money left over to do the things you enjoy. That means leading a good, yet affordable, life...

Re: Why move to Cambodia? Because you can ...
seems accurate as to pricing.
you can get a great place overlooking the bassac river 20 kms downstream from PP for $150.

Re: Why move to Cambodia? Because you can ...
My place in BKK1 was $260 (one br, large balcony) but the uncomfortable rattan furniture and foam mattress reflect that price point. Since I moved out seven months ago it's been vacant and so has the one above it where my neighbour left a month or so after me. Mine had a calendar in it indicating it had been vacant for nine months before me, so you would think they might consider reducing their rents (or improving the furniture) if they want tenants.frank lee bent wrote: ↑Wed Jun 28, 2017 5:41 pm seems accurate as to pricing.

I'm like Jamie- I feel more "normal" in Cambodia than anywhere else in the world.
I can't imagine ever wanting to leave.
