Cambodia impressions
I could’ve spent so much more time in Cambodia! It’s such a shame I only had five days to explore this amazing country.
Angkor what?
Natalie – I met her in Chiang Rai, Thailand, we happened to be in Siem Reap at the same time and since we kept in touch we decided to meet up – and I went to the temples for sunrise and therefore, had to start our day at 5am in the morning.
