Re: Expats needing a helping hand
I have helped desperate people before who were going off the rails. Nothing I gave to them helped them in any way, it just extended their downfall a bit.

Someone please check up on my ex, I hear he’s not going so great since we split and I ceased financial support.

Re: Expats needing a helping hand
Well to start I have just started a job here in Phnom Penh, at first it was all great, coming over to a new country to work. But as time moves on, its really starting to get lonely and boring the longer i stay here. Is there any place i could possibly make some friends who generally speaks english ?

Re: Expats needing a helping hand
Best thing would be to find some expats with the same interests as you, so check out facebook. Start with PP Expats page and go from there. Check in here on the forum and see what people are doing. Some like tinkering with motors, others are saving cats. There are threads about what to do in PP.
Some suggestions. Take up Khmer lessons - if you take an evening class you'll meet expats and locals, and improving your Khmer will also improve your social life and make you feel more connected to the different culture.
Join a gym or fitness club. There is also the Hash House Harriers, which is a social club for runners that drink, or something like that, and you can also walk.
Good luck.

That's interesting and good information to know because I like saving motors and tinkering with cats.Anchor Moy wrote: ↑Sun Jan 05, 2020 8:55 am Best thing would be to find some expats with the same interests as you, so check out facebook.

Re: Expats needing a helping hand
I wouldn't advise any expat in danger of going off the rails to look for advice, guidance and life coaching at Sundance Bar.
