Sunset at Phnom Bakheng
Finally the bus arrived around midday at Siem Riep. Jenny and I share a room what is lots better then the room of the last night. We went for watching the sunset at Phnom Bakheng. We got a three day trip with tuk tuk for $25 for each of us. First sunset is free but was disappointing. Lots of people, no good photos and I had seen better sunsets. Read the rest of this entry »

Temple watching and a fountain in the bathroom
Chris and I watched a couple of temple today. In the evening we went for dinner and met a funny couple with them we went later on to the last place what was opened in Luang Prabang – the bowling bar. And who did I met – Jost, a friend of Andy, we didn’t see for at least 3 years. We hang out and went later to the Mekong. When we decided to go home i offered Jost to stay with us because it was to far for him. Chris was so drunk, it was 4:00am and somehow he broke the sink from the wall. The sink was completely destroyed and we had a big fountain at the bathroom. Was really embarrassing when the lady came and had to fix it at night. Read the rest of this entry »
Arrived in Chiang Mai
After a 12hours busride from Bangkok I arrived around 6:00am at Chiang Mai. I asked one of the swedish I met for sharing a room so we paid only 100baht each for our accomodation. Frederic (the swedish) wanted to walk around so we did a little tour in Chiang Mai visiting some temple. It was a little bit complicated to find the way back to the guesthouse but finally we got it. Later I booked for 1600baht my three day trekking tour through the jungle and the mountains around Chiang Mai. Read the rest of this entry »
