    Siem Reap

    March 3 in Cambodia ⋅ ☀️ 38 °C

    - Bus to Siem Reap, smooth and not too long, 4-5 hours. Angry birds helped time go faster
    - all kinds of spring rolls cafe
    - Sunset at Angkor Wat was lovely, met a tuk tuk driver who was the nicest man
    - Sunrise and temple visits of the Khmer empire, a huge city from 1000 years ago, visiting felt very wild and the temples were so intricate. Despite their beauty, 4-5 temples was enough, it was far too hot by midday
    - beers at several breweries and cafes were great, Siem Reap seems to be trending toward a sustainable and environmental view with their restaurants and some shops.
    - delicious vegetarian meal, the best peanut butter pie. Also Haven restaurant, a restaurant hiring local kids to educate them and pay them was a great dining experience.
    - landmine museum and the hero rats were visited, very raw places highlighting horrible things. The rats were cute though.
