Like I wrote previously this is my just about 5th year living in the land of wonder. Or Cambodia. All the time just about has been spent in either Phnom Penh or here in Siem Reap. What I've found this time is longevity. This sense of not...

My wife made this fully loaded Khmer soup yesterday and fed these people in this small village. She told me about 20 people showed up to eat her food. This makes her very happy. I don't usually go to those events and she always still...
