Stop Press!

Trying to finish Cyprus trip. Four new videos uploaded into previous posts.

After trotting around Southeast Asia over the summer, I'm now back in the UK - Cambridge to be exact. Am trying my best to update as frequently as my clinical course will allow.

Entries on Italy and France two winters ago have been put on hold indefinitely. Read: possibly never. But we shall see.

Entries on Greece and Turkey last winter have also been put on hold for the time being.

Angkor National Museum


Like the Cambodian Museum, I highly recommend the Angkor National Museum before you visit the Angkorian temples, especially if you're not planning on hiring a tourguide. It's a bit pricey, but you pay what you get for: a really luxurious building with spacey exhibition galleries. the halls are air-conditioned, offering respite from the heat and the amount of information is just right - not too much to overwhelm you but not too little not to learn about anything. Information on the Khmer civilization , its religion and rulers as well as its culture are disseminated by excellent use of multimedia. You'll definitely spend more than two hours here.
