Video: Time Lapse of Temples Near Siem Reap, Cambodia

Video: Driving Cambodian-style

We have seen some crazy driving in our time, but Cambodians have a style of driving that is a class of its own. This includes driving on the wrong side of the street when they want to. Knock on wood but we have not been in any accidents! [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIbh9eKMwnE?t=10s]

Video: Atrocities Of The Khmer Rouge

Video: Atrocities Of The Khmer Rouge

Before visiting Cambodia, we had heard of the horrors of the Khmer Rouge. The difference between reading about a genocide and seeing the evidence firsthand is tremendous. While this video is nothing more than a couple images and video with some facts and figures cut into it, the atrocities of the Khmer Rouge were very Read Post

The Rocky Road to the Top of Mt Kyaiktiyo

May 20, 2013Filed in: Destinations by Mike Shubbuck

Golden Rock at Mt. Kyaiktiyo

The Golden Rock is one of the most holy Buddhist sites in Myanmar and truly an amazing sight. However, I found the journey to the top of Mt Kyaiktiyo to be taxing on both the wallet and body. That is not to say I do not recommend visiting the rock, but I do so with Read Post

May 17, 2013Filed in: Destinations by Mike Shubbuck

Bago, Myanmar

After getting our bearings and kyats (the local currency, pronounced “chats”) in Yangon, we decided to visit Bago, a bustling small town a two-hour drive northeast. The decision to travel here was primarily due to having three weeks in the country and a large gap of where to go. While we initially marked numerous cities Read Post
