What to do in Cambodia? Well, so very, very much! And Cambodia with kids, wow! What an amazing adventure. When we decided to head there I spent a lot of time scouring the internet to put together our itinerary. I found it immensely helpful to see what other families had done however most of the […]

If you love adventure history food beaches animals and food (yep, I know that’s on here twice) ….then you really should visit Cambodia (with kids, if you have them)! family holiday to Cambodia We just spent 23 […]
We have not long returned from one of the most memorable experiences of my life so far, a visit to The Mondulkiri Project, an elephant sanctuary working in the north east of Cambodia. I thought this would be something the kids would love, and of course they did. What I didn’t expect was I would […]

I had a hunch that we were heading into Paradise but hadn’t made too much of a fuss about it with the family….just in case (the internet can be wrong!)

One of the best things about travelling are that people that you meet along the way. I am hoping to sit down with various women as we travel through Cambodia to get a glimpse of what life is like for them. In Siem Reap I spoke with Sovann, one of the staff at Mysteres D’Angkor […]
I’m holed up in a lovely little cafe in Siem Reap while the kids watch a movie and my husband reads. It’s a ‘rest day’ for us after a few big days exploring the temples of Angkor and Siem Reap town and its time to chill (literally!) We’ve always been people who love to travel […]
