Anyway, over the last few […]

I arranged with my guest house for a tuk-tuk driver to take me to the ruins of Angkor today. My driver suggested starting with what they like to call the Grand Tour Circuit, bypassing the main attraction of Angkor Wat and doing a loop that passes several other amazing ruins in the area. […]
