Battambang to Kampot

Now I had to get from Battambang to Kampot which should have been an easy trip cause of taking the sleeping bus and arrive after around 7 hours.
Well this did not happened.
I the hostel I checked with them if I have to watch my position on google so that I know when to get off. They said no problem the driver will tell you. Who would have thought he did not told me to get off in Phnom Penh.
But first, the sleeper bus is not the same as in Vietnam so you have to charge the sleeping bus with a stranger. Second they don’t turn the light on when they stop, which would have been helpful to know when there were stops to get off. After missing my stop to change busses I suddenly got told to get off and go on the motorcycle which already had my backpack in the front. Great so now I was on a motorcycle with 2 backpacks and a non English speaking driver with no plan what is going on. After around 30 min we stop somewhere in nowhere and a guy told me we’ll not rally told me but showed with hands that I had to get off and get in the car which was waiting on the side. Ok I’ll do that and off we go via car with only locals in it and a road which was not really a road. The drive was insane. Sand storm so not much to see and the road was just a gravel road but the driver did not care. He was speeding and overtaking all the time. After 3 hours i finally arrived in Kampot and so happy that after 12 hours on the go I was in the hostel.Read more
