My idea of how to have a great and not too busy schedule when visiting and exploring Cambodia. 1. Phnom Penh Encounter the capital of the Kingdom of Cambodia Phnom Penh. The people are kind, friendly, and will always give you a smile and a helping hand. Phnom Penh has a distinctive friendly and mellow vibe. You can even go around on foot without fearing for your life. Best area to stay Daun Penh: Whether you are on a budget or like comfort Daun Penh is a great location.  The hostels offer accommodation in dorms from 3$, private rooms for around 10$ a night. Where to Go Choeung ek Genocidal center , also known as the killing fields of The Pol Pot regime. It is a dreadful tour in the fields containing mass graves and slaughter places where the regime killed 20.000 of their own people. When you go, do yourself the favor of getting the audio tour. It provides a lot of information and it gives you the opportunity of not talking with your fellow travelers while seeing the...

My Top 5 Asian Capitals Below I will take you through 5 of my absolute favorite Asian capitals. Some are very touristy and filled with normal “must see” attractions, some are less frequently visited by tourists and you get more vibe and soul than actual attractions. All have found a special place in my heart. I believe all of them are worth a visit at least once in a lifetime. Some you will fall in love with and probably go back. 5. Hong Kong, China Enjoy big pulsating city-life along with oriental beauty?

1.        Australia : Spiders aren’t actually that scary! – When I first arrived in Australia I checked everything! I mean everything for spiders. I was sure I would die from spider bites. I read that Australia is home to all the deadliest animals in the world and I was sure those spiders would get me.       After around a month I stopped. I saw a few redbacks in the outback and a funnel web in Byron Bay but no spiders ever attacked me. After around 5 months I was more frightened of Crocodiles. Never saw one. 2.        New Zealand : The Lord of the Rings movie didn’t lie about the scenery! OMG! We spend five weeks in New Zealand and I loved the nature (and the people). Everywhere we went and everywhere we stopped the car was amazing and breathtakingly stunning. I wanted to be Samwise and go on a trip with Frodo across New Zealand and to this day I want to go back and just walk and walk all...
