APAD 018: Sports jerseys

These jackets are selling like hotcakes. A lot of young local Cambodians snap these jackets. They’re not secondhand items, they overruns from the factories just next door this shop. For $9 I’m not a taker. It is still too much, in my opinion.

They’re factory overruns, not secondhand stuff.

Would you buy one yourself?
If the seller agreed to $4, I would’ve got one for myself. I’d choose the Spain jacket, of course. I’m an avid fan of Rafael Nadal, the tennis player 🙂

APAD 017: Rural life

A small wooden house surrounded by a small lotus pond – typical scene in rural Cambodia. Slow-paced and a laid-back lifestyle awaits the weary-souls of city-dwellers who come home to the countryside once in a while.

This is rural Cambodia.

I like the elaborate design of this entrance. This pagoda is located in Prek Phnov, Russei Keo district, just a few kilometers away from the public market.

At the entrance, an archway carved with giant images facing the four directions greet visitors to this temple.

The design is a replica of the images found at Bayon Temple in Siem Reap while the arch features mythical creatures atop elephants. The beautiful kbach design that is characteristically Khmer is also carved on the arch.
