How long have you lived in Cambodia? Poll

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.

Is this full time, without leaving for six months of the year, or just generally?

Gee, I had to dig out my old passports to check, but my first 3 month visa was in Oct 2003 till Jan 2004, but did have one month visa before that, then continuously getting 3 month visas [ I dont know why ] until I got my first 1 years visa 2005. So I guess I could say 20 years if I included the 2 years I was trapped in OZ because of covid, and could not get back to Cambodia, as I still had my home here in PP. Next month its 17 years living at the same address.

Haven't left except for holidays
