SEA is boring

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

SEA is boring

Post by saigonjackpot »

This trip I feel as if Im in a retirement home in SEA with the amount of old dudes wandering around grumbling and hanging in there cliquey little bars drinking them selfs into there daily coma to cope with boredom.

But seriously it is very few boring here I mean where is the parks, librarys, fishing spots ,surfspots ,skateparks, community centres in SEA?

I believe thisis a huge underlying issue fueling to the huge drug and alcohol consumption in the region because there is simply just nothing to do.

All my previous trips to India I found that I was never bored. Every day there something different happening.
