Cambodia rocks

As much traveling as I have done, you’d think I would get tired of it, but the opposite is true. The more I travel, the more I want to travel. Wanderlust is a habit for which there is no cure. Cambodia has been great. We have explored as much as possible in just a week, but we still couldn’t see it all. The locals that we met were incredibly friendly, helpful and beautiful. I think the country’s recent past and reputation have set it back a few years, but the people are trying very hard to overcome that. It is a safer place now and is easily traveled if you are used to third world countries. It’s safer than most of the ones I’ve been to, and there is so much incredible stuff to see!

I have been laying the groundwork to potentially bring a workshop group here in the future. I know that I will be back at some point. I have been too busy to blog much while here, but have a lot of pics and stories to share at some point.

Tomorrow we head for Krabi, Thailand for the next leg of this long journey. I’m hoping to meet up with my good friend Ismail Kadir, Malaysia’s best watercolorist. I was just with him for a couple of weeks in India, but he’s the kind of guy that you don’t want to ever pass up the opportunity to spend time with.

We’ll leave the Angkor temples for now and push south toward the beach. I’m certain that more great things await!
