Me and my 15-year old daughter started in Bangkok and spent two intense days exploring China Town, river cruising, visiting temples and Khao San Road. We took the train to the challenging border crossing in Aranyaprathet and entered Cambodia. The impressive Angkor Wat was by itself worth the whole journey! Our active days contained zip-lining in the jungle and biking in the amazing Angkor Wat. We walked in the puffy white sand and watched sea life in the crystal-clear water at the beautiful island Koh Ta Kiev. And we had calm days on the fantastic island Koh Rong Samloem. All thanks to new friends and helpful locals. We had several intensive evenings in hectic cities. In Siem Reap, we did not dare to test Skuon, the grilled and salted big hairy spiders. In Phnom Penh we celebrated New Year near the lit temple by the river with thousands of locals but also ended up in neighborhoods, we had to hurry away from. We spent the last days of our trip in Thailand where we visited friends, learned to go three on a motorbike, and tried many delicious, local dishes. The best experiences are found outside your comfort zone when you venture out into the spaces
