A grim reminder to motorists in Cambodia.

This is a common roadside sign in Cambodia: a grim reminder about the hazards of driving. Road traffic accidents are a major issue in the Kingdom and death tolls are ever increasing annually.

I’m excited about this!

Cambodia Yoga is just a few doors away from where I live.

No more terrifying motorbike ride to the city where I take my usual yoga class. No more migraine-inducing traffic.  Cambodia Home Yoga is located in my neighbourhood in Tuol Kork/Tuol Sangkeo and just two shakes of a lamb’s tail to get there from my apartment.

APAD 266: TK Avenue

Good news to residents of Tuol Kork (TK) like me.
TK Avenue offers shopping, dining and entertainment – all in one place. And what’s great news is that we don’t have to go very far. It is less than five minutes from our place.

One of those places where people want to be seen.

TK Avenue opened last year and it’s an open-air mall that houses high-end restaurants and luxury brand shops. It is clean and has a Western vibe to it; and it is popular to mostly well-to-do Cambodians, especially the young ones who are most fond of taking selfies in every corner!

I don’t go there often though and if I do, it’s mostly for coffee with friends at Brown Cafe. Perhaps it is time that I explore the various dining options there.

APAD 260: Cheang Chea Sea Shop

When you’re in Cambodia, or other countries with Buddhist as the official religion, shops such as Cheang Chea Sea are everywhere. Cheang Chea Sea is probably the shop owner’s name and they sell Buddhist religious stuff such as images of Buddha and other deities, ritual paraphernalia and other Buddhism-related items.

A one-stop shop for a wide-variety of Buddhism-related items.

Details included in the sign are the name of the shop, best-selling products, as well as the shop address and contact numbers. However, only the name of the shop and the shop location and contact numbers are in English. The rest are in Khmer script.
