Elephants & Dolphins in Cambodia! // Kratie to Mondulkiri
Hi, I'm JJ and I'm exploring Cambodia in depth!
On this journey I visit the mighty Mekong River to search for Irrawaddy Dolphins in Kratie. These are one of the rarest Dolphins in the world!
Then, I head to Mondulkiri and the Elephant Valley Project to see the amazing work they are doing in elephant tourism in an ethical way!
Join along for a series of Cambodia travel vlogs and some tips on tricks on how to get the best out of your time here!

How does someone turn from a wildlife poacher into a wildlife warrior? Hi, it's JJ and I have just arrived at the Wildlife Release Station deep in the Cardamom Mountains of Cambodia! The WRS is home to a variety of amazing and endangered Cambodian species including Sun Bears, Hornbills, Pangolins and more and the aim is to release these guys, who were often victims of illegal poaching, back out...
