Cambodia is more than just Angkor Wat (though Angkor Wat IS truly amazing) - it’s a beautiful and under-rated country that I definitely think should be on your travel bucket list! We’ll talk history (specifically, the Khmer Rouge), what to do in Siem Reap, Phnom Penh, and Kampot and, as always, the best-eats.

• Kampot Day Tour

• Hostels: the Twizt (nice and chill), Onederz (nice and social)

• Kayaking: Green Cathedral (several places to rent kayaks around the loop, ~$5/day!)
