When I first saw pictures of the temples of Siem Reap, I actually wasn’t very impressed. I thought they all kind of looked the same and wondered why they were so famous and why people needed more than a day to visit them. Oh, naive me! These temples were absolutely breathtaking!

Alright! To continue with our journey!! To Cambodia! After we pulled our all-nighter in Samui, we hopped on a plane back to Bangkok.

I had tried doing research but apparently it wasn’t enough… And to the person who pointed this out to me, thank you, despite the sarcastic asshole comment … More Tiger Temple, Thailand
On the second day in Bangkok, Shosh and I parted ways from Shah temporarily to visit the Tiger Sanctuary in Kanchanaburi, a good 3-hour drive away. On the way there, we stopped by a floating market! It feels like such a scam when they initially offer the tour for $100 per person and then you settle … More Floating Market, Thailand
Well, yes, this may be our third city on our entire trip, but Bangkok really marks the beginning of our adventures together.
