    It’s almost pronounced P’noem Peng. Sort of a glottal stop at the end of penh . I love it there. Wonderful city. And very evocative having the Mekong run through it… though the river alongside the riverwalk is the Tonle Sap- which is the only river of substance in the world that changes the direction of its flow according to the season.
    Nice vid again Sam…

    Another great video. I have been to Siam Reap and that was wonderful, but need to check out PP next time. Any problems at passport control? Up in Siam Reap they didn't like me for some reason. Made me wait for 45 minutes to get my passport stamped......that's after they took it, not waiting in any line, they just took it and held it for 45. Almost missed my scheduled pick up.

    Sam, you used up most of your money on your Thai ex and now you are still spending way too much. Sleep in cheap $ 10-a-night hotels, eat the street food (you won't get sick)... you really have to cut your costs or you'll end up back in OZ.

    I've had amazing adventures with some tuk tuk drivers in Phnom Penh. Yes, they are trying to make as much money as possible, but who isn't? They are working after all. But sometimes just jumping in and going for the ride takes you where you would never expect. And they are usually the nicest people. We just need to set boundaries. One took my lady and myself to the greatest water park. We practically had the place to ourselves. It was Unforgettable.
