We heart Cambodge

back again and oving it.

as always we are hosted by the lovely Rach, this time in her Phnom Penh palace, with our own room with an ensuite! spoilt! Its a lovely airy naked wood home with a large deck dripping with orchids aching of the humid romance of the east. we were greeted by geckos in the house on our arrival and the sounds of the neighbourhood kids playing in the street. Needless to say we are loving her new surrounds.

in typical expat fashion we have tiki toured round town in tuk tuks, dining on khmer food(including tarantulas!) and all sorts other international food, from french o Italian and Lebanese. Eating like royalty to.

we have shopped, visited some sites, some have worked, while others have swum at pool bars and taken afternoon massages. And did i mention eaten like sultans!? it's been Divine.

great times catching up with rach. pleased to say she's well after a bout of fever, running rings around me as i type decorating her house middle eastern/kiwiana style, and is fully assimilated into life here - and tempting us into it as well. its a far off possibility but not this time for us.

anyway, must be off to pack for angkor wat tomorrow. xx
