Sitting by the northwestern baray, there's a sort of earthly peace as the sun slowly rises above the towers of Angkor Wat. Somewhere in the distance, traditional Khmer music - similar to the one I heard at the Royal Palace - floats on the early morning breeze. In the gloom just before the break of dawn, the priests carry out their ablutions. With their prayers, they celebrate the dawning of a new day.

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.
