The whole family has been missing Cambodia for far too long, and this post is an extension of part 1, just more photos I think are very Cambodian.

Cambodia is not the wild-west like it was from 2000 to 2010, but the Cambodian spirit is a very independent one full of humor.

Russian Mafia WeirdnessThen one day the Chinese and their money came to town, and the Russian and Turkish mafias were gone within a year. Now the town is full of Chinese skyscraper casinos and hotels. |
Humble Improvised ClassroomsThe "classroom" was set up behind a 5-star hotel for the Angkor Wat sunrise tuk-tuk driver fleet. I was a horrible teacher with zero experience back then, I didn't even deserve the $60 salary. |
