Siem Reap

     A little over fifteen years ago, I went to Siem Reap with close Malaysian friends to see the famed Angkor Wat. It was one of the longest trip I had in order to benefit from the zero fare of Air Asia. We went to Cambodia  with free air  tickets we booked three months earlier.

     There were many things unforgettable of that trip with my close friends.

     We visited all the ancient temple ruins for at least three days. I have seen the enormous beauty of the temples which made me wonder on how were they able to construct them during ancient times.

     We tried the happy pizza, or pizza with marijuana, which is legal to eat in Cambodia. There was no effect on me though it seemed one of my lady friends had it. I can't explain why I am unaffected.

     We visited Tonle Sap lake, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia, seeing the lives of the people in the floating village. We saw how people live adapting to the environment.

     It was probably the cheapest trip I had, where one USD is highly appreciated. You can go around and pay in USD bills.

It's Damn Cold Again

     It feels so cold, it penetrates up to my bones. My extremities are all feeling cold. When I checked the temperature, I realized it explains why it feels so cold. I have been to winter countries, been exposed to snow in Norway back then but I dont't know why at this temperature I feel so cold. Brrrr.

It's 17-18°C out there
