Off to the island koh Rong Sanloem

On my way to an island everyone talked about, we’ll see how I feel about it. We took the bus from Kampot to Sihanoukville which took around 3 hours and you have to pay 15$ for the transport and 15$ for the ferry with return. But this is as always the tourist price, local pay half the price less. At this point I’m actually pissed cause all they really care is getting your money. Anyways the bus was packed and one had to sit in the middle of the van.
We arrived at the ticket shop to exchange the recipe to real tickets and of course so that they can sell you tickets for when you come back to the mainland.
Finally all arrived at the pier but we did not got any information where to go or when the ferry leaves, keep in mind that at this pier are more ferry’s and company’s. After waiting around 30 min a ferry / boat arrived and we got told to get in. Just like that “ move, go to boat” our backs got thrown on without any care. Lucky I did not had any valuable things in my.
The boat took around 30 min, it was a quite see so an easy drive. We arrived and the. Got taken to smaller boats to get us to the hotels. At this point all I saw were just hotels along the beach and dirt. On the beach and in the water. After checking in and taking a shower I took a small walk around the place and met some new people. Ben from the UK recommended a good BBQ spot so we went there for some food. Had to be back at 9pm for the fire show and what a surprise, I meet a friend from people I’ve went on a tour with there. She is working at the hostel I stayed at. Moved to Cambodia to her boyfriend 2 month ago.Read more
