Tips for ethical travel in Cambodia

Do you have a Cambodian trip report you want to share? Post it here, and feel free to link to your blog if it's a travel blog for Cambodia, South East Asia, or anywhere really. You can ask and answer questions about travel advice in Cambodia or just share your pictures and videos with us. Most people who live in or visit Cambodia have also checked out nearby countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, and you can get to most of these countries by traveling overland, so put any travel plans, reviews or questions here. Discussions about dirt bike trails in here as well.

they do sell turtles ( when my daughter was young we broght one and took it home-- they looked at us like we were weird) at some temples, (few and far between) to release into the ponds on the temple grounds

13.Dont drive or take night bus's between cities.

I bought a couple of small ones from the night market and threw them in our pond. They died. Turns out they were tortoises.

Open your heart and open your wallet /purse, when you get home you may be a few dollars poorer but it may make a difference to people here.
