Cambodia (Siem Reap, Angkor Wat, and arrival in...
Once we finally made it to Siem Reap, Cambodia, we ended up staying at this place called Mandalay Inn which wasn’t too far from the main downtown area. Siem Reap is a pretty small little town and overwhelmingly people just come there to see the Angkor Wat temples, which was why we were there. Angkor served as the seat of the Khmer empire which flourished from the 9th to 15th centuries,...

Bangkok and the journey to Siem Reap!
I just realized how behind I am on my updates!! Here’s a bit more about Bangkok and our trip to Siem Reap in Cambodia…
After our eventful first night in Bangkok, we spent the following two days doing mainly shopping and exploring the city during the days and the first night we went to a muay thai boxing match, and the second night we went to a drag show called Calypso Cabaret. We found Bangkok...

First Night in Bangkok (long overdue post!)
Even though it feels like Bangkok was months ago, I guess it was just a little over a week. Here’s what happened when we got there…
So we arrived in Bangkok by plane on the second-to-last night of the water festival celebrating Songkran (the Thai new year) where people dump, spray, and shoot water at you at all hours of the day. Though the festival is only celebrated for a few days in some...
Time to smack my beach up
[As usual, I wrote this a few days ago so it’s a bit off time-wise…]
I am currently in a mini-bus on the way from the island of Koh Lanta (off the west coast of Thailand) to Krabi. From there, we’ll catch a plane to Bangkok. We’ve been here in Koh Lanta for four days and I absolutely don’t want to leave. Seriously, if you don’t hear from me for a few weeks, I’ve moved to Koh Lanta permanently.

Singapore rules!
Wanted to take a moment to post a quick update about what’s been going on with me in Southeast Asia! [note: I wrote this a few days ago but didn’t have time to post it so it’s a couple days off]
Today is the last of four days spent in Singapore, which has been our first stopping point, our gateway to Asia. I freaking loved Singapore! I think it will be very different from most of the other...

things that just happened.
1. Upon hearing ke$ha for the first time, my mom says, “It sounds broken.”
2. She then asked if she (ke$sha) was the one who sang that song “if you like it then you shoulda put your hand on it” (with oh so many apologies to beyonce).

Highlights of the weekend's farmers' markets
I sell meat and cheese at local farmers’ markets, and the peeps there be crazy/interesting/awesome/sometimes all of the above. Here are some things that happened this week.
1. A man came to my booth and I was blabbering on about cheese as I always do. He was silent. He signed something to me and went to reach for a pen and paper. Realizing he was deaf, I told him that I sign, and we...
