This is a maxi-card.Well, almost. It features the Prasat Preah Vihear, or the Preah Vihear Temple, located in the northern Cambodian province of Preah Vihear. It is a beautiful Hindu temple sitting on top of a mountain that straddles between the Cambodia and Thailand border. Please visit my
Postcards Crossing blog for more info about Preah Vihear and postcards from countries around the world.

When I look at this picture, I feel a pinch in my heart. This is, again, a picture I took in Kep. I will never get tired of going there.

Is she familiar to you?
In Phnom Penh, I see this woman every time I go to Psah Thmey or the New Market, commonly (albeit incorrectly) called as the Central Market by most expats. She is one of the colourful figures there. Everyday she stands at the entrance of Psah Thmey offering hammocks of different colours to tourists and locals alike. Oh, she could be very persistent and annoying sometimes.Every time I see her, her colourful wares draped around her body like a sash, and her wide cheeky smile, I am constantly reminded of one of my favourite biblical characters, Joseph the Dreamer.
Can you see the similarities? 🙂
