Yorkshire lad again...
Firstly Jamie Lambo, sinnsisamouth
Thanks for the feedback.
Ok so is it easier to rent a apartment on a monthly basis or a guest house and move around a little if you know what I mean ??
Also what is the fascination with barangs kicking the shit out of cash points oh I mean ATMs...
I really don't understand this but it's quite amusing,
Maybe one day that might be me lol
Any other advice that might help me in my first few hours/days.
Sinnsisamouth you gave me two weeks before I get robbed well I hope not mate
Is it really that sketchy??
Or just certain times in certain places
I thought it was the law I should watch out for ?
Or is this just Sinnsisamouth banter lol
Cheers guys

Re: Yorkshire lad again...
depends where you want to be based, its far cheaper to rent an apartment than staying in a guesthouse, you have the novelty of a kitchen etc alsoEnglish mak wrote: ↑Thu May 18, 2017 3:35 pm Firstly Jamie Lambo, sinnsisamouth

stay in a guesthouse first then go apartment hunting when you find somewhere you want to be based
robbing can and does happen, mainly to clueless people who arent streetsmart, some people will beg to differ, but in 5 years ive not had any problems
you wont need to watch out for the law, other than if you get pulled over by traffic cops but as long as you got your shit in gear (IDP or License/lights off/helmet on) you will have no problems

Never been robbed and I have been in Cambodia for a little while. But yes, it does happen and snatchings are common.

Re: Yorkshire lad again...
some hookers have no moral they simply dont care and wont think twice about robbing your room blind whilst your asleep.
this is a big risk for newbies and even hardened old school alcoholics in SEA.

Re: Yorkshire lad again...
true, it is the most likely scenario of getting robbed, bar girls arent too much of a problem, but freelancers can be high risk as they are harder to track down, or so they thinkricefarmersdaughter wrote: ↑Thu May 18, 2017 6:16 pm some hookers have no moral they simply dont care and wont think twice about robbing your room blind whilst your asleep.

The ladies, I would like the name of the best bar from you guys please and street number in Phnom Penh

Do you just stash you valuables when you get a hooker around??
