I haven't posted on my blog for yonks. Here goes. My time in Cambodia was short, only a week. I travelled by myself. (My previous two trips abroad were with my niece, Natalie.)
I was nervous when I landed at Siem Reap airport; and very tired. (I hadn't more than dozed on the long flights from Cape Town to Kuala Lumpur. Even my night at the Tune Hotel at the LCC Airport wasn't very restful.) The hotel in Siem reap hadn't sent a car to fetch me from the airport, as I had requested, but it was a fortunate oversight. The taxi driver who took me to the Soria Moria Hotel, a kind young man, Somang, offered to take me to Angor Wat and various other temples, the next day, and he had a friend who was a guide. I was to tired to explain "I never hire a car or a guide because I'm from Africa and I don't earn dollars or pounds." I'm glad I said "Yes" to both his offers.
