e last bits of cambodia

our last dinner in cambodia was at cafe indochine (yeah seriously sounds like our indochine hor?), juz beside our hotel.

looks like a posh place horz? i tink shops in siem reap are generally more posh than those in phnom penh, more tourists mahz.

look at our romantic coconut for 2! LoL~ nice ambience~

right to left below: khmer chicken amok, some beef in cambodian style.

amok is okay but potentially gerlaat cuz of e thick milky gravy. n i concluded tat cambodian beef is juz not to my liking.

total bill: USD13 (SGD20) for 2 person.

then we went for some FABULOUS khmer foot massage (forgot to take photo -_- ), 1hr USD6 (SGD9).

after which we found tis gem by e roadside! pancake crepe (im impressed by its name)! it's like our prata w egg, but more crispy n plus condensed milk! woohoo~

me n yul simply love it! hot, crispy, n sweet! oni USD0.50 (SGD0.75)! *yums*

we patronised e stall on both our nites there lorz. n u noe how hard it is to forage for e same MOBILE roadside stall?

e nx day, we woke up at 5am to catch our 8am flight back to sg.

tats how small n empty e departure hall is at siem reap airport (check in counters to my left). there was oni 2 flights in e morn lorz.

their airport is single storey, so we had to literally walk TO e plane. it was an unusual experience. haha~

it's e 2nd time in my life tat im actually glad 2b on e plane back hm (1st time was china). usually i juz wanna stay in e foreign ctry longer.

to summarise wat i like abt cambodia:

- khmer foot massage

- cheap hotel

- cheap shopping

wat i donT like abt camb:

- TOO many touts

- TOO many ppl asked me for $$ in e most ridiculous sorta way

- expensive admissions (SGD30 for angkor wat n floating village EACH)

- veri veri dirty air n roads

- they dont speak much of my languages

- pressure selling (i've been forced to buy things, seriously)

spent SGD900 in total, for 5D5N. half on air tix n hotel n half on spending. quite abit to spend in a 3rd world ctry, i wld say.

me n yul did alotta stupid things there: lost USD20 worth of newly-bot shorts, bot a bottle of angkor beer with no bottle opener, boat ride wif 2 complete male cambodians, etc.

despite all these, it was an adventurous n eye-opening trip with great company yo~
