Cambodians love their scooters…
temples of Angkor Wat
I’ve been driving and hiking two days through the temples of Angkor Wat near Siem Reap. There are so many tourists in the main temples!
But the not well known temples on the big loop are much less visited and sometimes it’s possible to roam and climb them completely alone!
Cambodia
I’m in Cambodia!
Except from Siem Reap with the famous Angkor Wat temple complex it feels like Cambodia is a little less developed than Laos.
But they have more beer brands! It’s also less rainy here, but a lot hotter and more humid.
And it’s flat! There are almost no mountains here but long straight roads (boring!).

Week 17 – the movie
not much happened in Week 17. We’ve been hanging around in Vientiane and then I’ve been on the road to Thalang. So don’t expect an exciting movie…
Luang Prabang, Pakse and 4000 Islands in Laos
I liked Laos very much! It’s a rather small country, so I didn’t need to travel long distances and could stay longer in some cities.
The Kuang Si waterfalls in Luang Prabang were impressive in this rainy season! In Vang Vieng it’s impossible to skip the tubing (see the movie here) and on the 4000 Islands it’s just quiet and relaxed (although there are currently not so much islands due to the high water level in the Mekong).
In Pakse there’s a big golden Buddha and some more waterfalls…

Turkish ice cream in China
In Dali, China there was a Turkish ice cream seller. And he did the same shenanigans as the ones back in Turkey!
