leaving for the airport in a half hour. I find that i don't really like what bit of cambodia i have seen so far. perhaps the countryside will be better but i don't think i want to ever come back here again. rather sad, as this is the first time i've said that about any country. The fact is, once the temples of angkor have been covered, i find very little else here, be it the people, the attractions/sights, the food or the scenery to be worth my time, money and effort. I know i have also invested less effort while here than in other countries, but honestly, the warding off of touts and trying not to get ripped off too badly by businesses, hotels, guesthouse, drivers, food and drink sellers etc already take up all of my energy. I actually think this trip would have been a lot less pleasant for me had the other two girls not been with me... so, thanks, babes =))
can't wait to get home, though it will be one flight and an overnight train ride away. what a difference from my last foray into indochina!

yeah, i wonder who the tourist among us is too. esp since i've been told that i look like a local :p
thanks babe, for doing the homework for this trip! was great to be away from the office a whole week, which, as i found out today, was quite an eventful one too. so, it's gonna be yet a busy week as my colleague goes on leave again, but thankfully, for a day only...
