In a world that is so well-connected, there are times when we feel like unplugging and just living in the moment while enjoying where we are without having to connect to the outside world.

What You Could Get in Sihanoukville for $10

What You Could Get in Sihanoukville for $10 – Is It Really Worth a Visit on Your Trip to Cambodia?

Leave a Comment / tips, cambodia, travel, what you could get in the city for $10 / By

Hi everyone!

Exactly last year, I was in Kampot weighing to consider whether or not I should stop by Sihanoukville afterward. In the end, I skipped the city due to limited time and just went ahead to Phnom Penh.

That's why when I'm looking for contributors for the $10 series, I prioritized some cities that I was so excited as I got connected to Timi of The LandLoper who could share her two cents about traveling around the city.

What did I miss when I was in Cambodia? Is Sihanoukville worth a visit despite all the negative things you see on the internet?!

Let's find out! 🙂

Review Bus from Cambodia to Laos: How to Travel from Siem Reap to Pakse With Asia Van Transfer

5 Comments / tips, cambodia, laos, sponsored, transportation, travel / By

I always love road trips!

Ever since I started planning my Indochina trip, I knew that I wanted to use either bus or train to get me from one place to another. That, until I googled about the bus from Siem Reap to Vientiane that I found out the number of border services from Cambodia to Laos isn't as many options as those from Cambodia to Vietnam.

There are a few options to travel overland from Siem Reap, whether you want to go to Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam or you're planning to travel from Siem Reap to Bangkok in Thailand. Unfortunately, the information about traveling from Siem Reap to Laos is a bit tricky to find.

After researching the options that I could take from Siem Reap to somewhere in Laos, I decided to make a stopover in Pakse. Honestly, when I decided to do that, it was actually my first time hearing about Pakse, so I barely knew anything about where to go or what to visit there.

However, I figured stopping by Pakse is an excellent way to go if I want to go across the border from Cambodia to Laos by land. I could stay for a night or two, and then continue my trip to Vientiane later. So I did.

Review: Angkor Pearl Hotel in Siem Reap, Cambodia

1 Comment / accommodation, cambodia, hotel, review, travel / By

Hi everyone!

After talking about what I did in Siem Reap for a day, it's time to share my experience staying at Angkor Pearl Hotel the other day!

One thing that I noticed about Siem Reap was that the average hotel rate is relatively higher than in Phnom Penh. If you haven't recognized my traveling style already, I like my accommodation to be affordable yet comfortable.

I'm in my 30s, so hostels are definitely out of my options. I won't say I'm so demanding when it comes to the accommodation, but I usually have one thing that is usually on my filter when it comes to searching for my ideal one: the elevator.
