Off to Osaka today , I'm having a break from the Cambodian high season and getting away from the dreadlock , elefant fisherman pant ,backpacker Lemmings who have come into S.E.A in swarms over last few weeks .

Just for a few months private tutoring and working in a guest house in downtown Osaka till I can return to a quiet low season in Snooky , Kampot or SR.

i thought you was in malaysia or the philipines or somewhere? or did you never leave here?
high season seems so much busier here in SHV than the past 2 years, and the amount of building work is becoming ridiculous, i barely recognize the place from like 3-4 seasons ago

It is, but you can live cheaply too. Just don't do anything like take the train or buy food.

I can't wait to read the glowing reports about life in $100 a night cubicles in Japan.

You must not be doing anything but eating rice/ramen and walking everywhere. I can't imagine living on 1200 yen a day (about 10 usd) in Osaka, even parking my bicycle was 200 yen a day. Just doesn't seem like fun, but whatever floats your boat.
