Follow along in depth for my travels through Southeast Asia. Chapter 1 Getting there, travel prep and our pre-cruise stay in Siem Reap, Cambodia at the beautiful boutique Anantara Angkor Resort & Spa. Learn the process for obtaining the necessary visas using CIBT. Follow along on our four flight legs starting at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport on American Airlines, Qatar Airways, and Thai Smile before arriving in Cambodia on December 2nd 2022. In Cambodia, join me with the adorable monkeys at Angkor Wat, and ride along with our fabulous tuktuk drivers and guides seeing water buffaloes, lotus farms, rice paddies and the somber killing fields. While I try to be an adventurous eater I failed doing our streetwise market and street food tour but absolutely love the Cambodian food and coffee. Follow along as we take part in the Cambodian cultural welcome rituals and spa indulgences with General Manager Supratik Guha. Ride along on our ATV Quad Bike Tour of the countryside with Siem Read Quad Bike Adventures.
