My brother´s travels - Cambodia

My brother´s travel emails:

Hello everyone,

Having a great time in Cambodia. In Phnom Penh (pronounced Pnum-Pinh). Saw the torture chambers of the Khmer Rouge in Phnom Penh today - quite depressing. Going to the Killing Fields tomorrow, just visited an orphanage today. Rode on the local transport - "Lemuir Moto" a cart for up to 30 people pulled by a little motorbike in front.

I will be flying out of Hanoi to Haadyai (via Bangkok) on the 16th of June. Can someone please call Ma and let her know? I'm arriving in Haadyai at about 8.30pm. Deciding between getting a van back or crashing somewhere for the night. I'm going to be in Laos next week, and going to make my way up to Vietnam. Will keep you posted if there is internet connection.

Che, what is the schpeel on the London thingy? I'll probably just want to rest, falling a little bit sick now already. If there is sufficient room to crash, I wouldn't mind staying in London for about 5 days or so.

Love, youngest son/ lil bro

Hello everyone,

I'm having an unbelievable time in Cambodia. Visited Phnom Penh Killing Fields, stayed with a random stranger in Udong (her mom cooked the BEST Khmer food), almost got kidnapped (ha ha, long story, will tell you later, but we're fine), visited the Kampong Chhnang airport, spending 2nd day in Angkor Wat now.

I'm flying via AirAsia arriving at 8.30pm, on the 16th. Confirmed. Paid already. If Mak Ee can meet me there it would be awesome. If not I can easily either go to Pattani or tuktuk to Tua Kim's. Can you also ask Ma if she wants to book the train ticket to KL maybe on the 20th?

I'd love to spend more time with the family, so if possible I would like to stay with everyone in London. Unless its too cramped for Ma and Mama, in that case I can call in a favour and crash at a friend's place or something. Hope everyone is having as great a time as I am. Miss you!!

Love, youngest son/ lil bro
