A fear some people have of visiting foreign countries is what the accommodations are like so I wanted to share a bit about the places we stayed while visiting Cambodia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Viet Nam. Cambodia Phnom Penn – Frangipani Villa 90s I loved his hotel. There are two in Phnom Penn so…
Since today is New Year’s Eve, I thought I’d share a few of my favorite travel memories. Not all of them are from 2016 but all of them are important to me. Getting Lost in Tokyo While in Japan, I was invited to dinner at the home of a CouchSurfer. Japanese addresses are notoriously difficult…
What a blast! We saw a video pf people ATVing through Siem Reap and knew that we wanted to have that experience. We bought our tickets online and a driver came to pick us up for the adventure. When the owners saw me babywearing they kinda freaked out. Lol I let them know that…

#1 It`s Gruesome If you choose to go to S21 prison you’ll see images of half naked adults and children. You’ll hear stories of people being tortured and killed. You’ll see living conditions that will haunt you. If you drive, or take a tuk tuk, out to the killing fields, you’ll see a small building…
Credit cards: yes Went to Phare and was amazed. The performers are great and the music is awesome. The acts make your heart jump into your throat. The best part? The storytelling! I won`t give too many details but it was worth the $18 fee for the cheap seats. If I had known it was…
We’re thinking about what activities we can while in Siem Reap. Obviously, we’ll visit Angkor Wat. I’m considering the sunrise photo shoot and some trolling around with a three day pass. Since I’ll also have a partner and toddler I’m trying to think of things that we all can enjoy. So far I’ve come up…
