A Glimpse of Me

Traveling is fun… especially when you travel in a completely new place or country. If you are observant enough, you’d notice some cultural differences. They are not bad, just different. Just yesterday when we were in the plane and the plane was about to take off, a couple of Cambodians at the back were singing some songs… whatever they were, the songs were definitely Cambodian. They sang sweetly… and if I wasn’t mistaken, they recorded it. Truly enough, they did… which was a bit irritating because they played back the song over and over again. LOL. I didn’t mind listening to them… but to listen to the song is some recording gadget wasn’t fun.

Anyways, you can learn a lot of differences when you travel.

I was looking down on Cambodia when the plane reached the place… and I realized there were not many big buildings around… Our hotel has 7 storeys. And the one I saw yesterday when we were roaming around had probably 10 storeys. There were a couple of hospitals I saw which had probably 2-3 storeys (I wonder whether they have seat lifts in their hospitals too?) and that’s all.

Will need to see more later. I love learning differences… in culture, in food, in environment… any thing new.  It is fun. Will share more later.

We are now in Cambodia and trying to get our bearings. We are staying at GGP Hotel. It’s a Korean Hotel actually but the concept is like an apartment, just furnished. When I say furnished, it has refrigerator, television, air conditioning unit and water heater. It has some good indoor lighting as well. I am sorry I cannot show you any photos. I am using the hotel’s computer and I didn’t bring my card reader. Oh… the internet usage is also for free. The room is very basic but very clean. Looks like the hotel is fairly new.

We are now preparing to go places. I am excited.
