We choose the remote town Sen Monorom, the capital of Mondulkiri Province, as our last stop in Cambodia. The major attractions there are – besides exploring the impressive landscape by motorbike on the red dirt roads and the imposing waterfalls – the two concurring elephant-related actives: On the one hand, elephant riding in the minority villages of the indigenous Pnong people, and on the other hand the Elephant Valley Project [&hellip

Angkor Wat, one of the best known temple complexes in the world, is not the only thing to see in Siem Reap. There are more than 1000 temples in the Angkor region and we especially enjoyed exploring smaller ones which were not overrun by tourists. Inside the temple area, the action movie Tomb Raider got produced. Coming from Battambang by boat, we experienced the tide-restistant and beautiful fishing villages, that [&hellip

And because the railway-track is single lined, it can happen that two bamboo trains from different directions face each other.

As we were and still are touched by the events that happened not only there but all over Cambodia, we prefer to write little and let the images speak for [&hellip

We rent motorbikes and explored the beautiful rural countryside to the neighbour city Kep: Exploring Secret Lake, Salt Fields, Fishing Villages and the well hidden White Elephant Caves… Lederhosening Dirtroad Adventure to White Elephant Caves We got lost in the outback around the Secret Lake and salt fields: farmers [&hellip

After one challenging month of exploring mystic paths of India, we took a flight from Calcutta to Bangkok. But Thailand was not our desired destination! As soon as possible, we continued our trip to Cambodia’s remote tropical islands. Departing from the port of Sihanoukville, a small boat took us to Koh Rung, where a small wooden bungalow directly by the white sandy beach just waited for us – literally sunrise [&hellip
