I love a boat trip! And we had two full days at the 4 Rivers Floating Lodge in which to indulge in this pursuit during out trip to Cambodia. In fact there are many activities to choose from when staying at the lodge, but we decided to go for the trip to see the waterfall [...]
This was our real treat of our last trip to Cambodia. The 4 Rivers Floating Lodge was expensive, but it was somewhere I had had my eye on for many years and now seemed the right time to do it. Special occasion? Check! Somewhere in Cambodia we hadn't been to before? Check! It was time [...]
I never in a million years thought that I would be living through a pandemic, it's something you only see in movies isn't it? But here we are. As we watch other nations slowly emerging from their lockdowns, we in UK are in our seventh week and await news from our government as to what [...]
This was our first, and our last, stop on our recent trip to Cambodia. It would be very easy to use familiar phrases to describe The Pavilion Hotel, such as an oasis in the chaos of the city...and I will...because it's just so true!! There is a reason why these phrases exist! I had chosen [...]
On our very empty Silkair flight to Cambodia, I managed to sit and gaze out of the window for almost the entire journey. Regular readers of my blog will know that this can be a challenge for me because of my fear of flying! On this flight however, I felt quite relaxed and managed to [...]
I mentioned in my previous post that my trip to Cambodia in 2019 had been primarily made up of temple hopping. Basing ourselves in Siem Reap, we had explored Angkor Wat again (in great detail!), but also ventured up to Preah Vihear, a temple perched high on a mountain top on the Cambodian/Thai border. This [...]
As I mentioned in an earlier post I got back to the UK in the nick of time in March, before all of the coronavirus restrictions kicked off in earnest. I had been to Australia and was lucky enough to fit in a 13 day trip to Cambodia on the way back, before returning to [...]
I was unsure whether I should post articles about travel at the moment, as we are all trying to deal with the events that are unfolding around us everywhere in the world. I am mindful that of course travel is just not an option, or a priority, at the moment and with the travel industry [...]
As we face this unprecedented event in our lives, I am filled with anxiety. and fear. However with this feeling of helplessness and loss of freedom we are experiencing, it has made me think about what brings me joy in life. When I think about this my thoughts are invariably drawn to a few key [...]
So, like so many others in the UK in light of the new guidance to try to curb the spread of COVID-19, I have been asked to working from home. I had my first experience of this on Wednesday this week...it was very odd! However, because it was so sudden, I am not fully set [...]
