Living in the Moment

Cambodia's side of the border on Poipet

It was our third day backpacking and this I swear is one of my most hassle days in 2018. I am not exaggerating that. We had a very stressful problem with our Airbnb host and Agoda booking. But first, let me start the post by narrating how we did border crossing by land!

I am always a fan of border crossing because living in the Philippines means we don't have a neighboring country that we could travel to by land so it was really fun crossing borders and observing how just by one single border changes how the way people live. This is most evident when we crossed the Laos-Thailand border. The way the drivers navigate is different from both countries. In Laos, they follow right-hand drive while in Thailand, they follow left-hand drive. So you could literally see differences by just how we changed lanes when we arrive in the border of Thailand. Little things like that fascinate me.

Marvelous Sagada Rice Terraces

I have always been a fan of chilly weather because let's face it, the weather here in Manila is not good for the skin. It gets too humid and hot sometimes so when there's a long weekend where I can experience Baguio weather without actually staying in Baguio, I grabbed the opportunity and went there with my father.

Looking and marveling the beauty of Angkor Wat

Our day 2 had us waking up very early in the morning. We woke up like 4AM so we can catch the sunrise over Angkor Wat. Based on my research, it is one of the most anticipated events for tourists who want to see Angkor Wat. And if you're visiting Siem Reap, you haven't really visited Angkor Wat if you didn't visit it's UNESCO world heritage site, Angkor Wat. This temple is so famous Khmer people included this in their flag. Have you noticed? Yup, that's how proud they are because temple symbolizes a win from Siam.
