Book Description

Cambodia is more than just genocidal communists, sweatshops and decaying temples. There's a vibrant culture — both unchanged for centuries and at the cutting edge of modernity — and endless adventures.

When I was 22, I was bored with university and work and decided to seek adventure. My initial 10 months as a volunteer teacher transformed into three years. I taught English, worked for a development agency, met my wife, contracted malaria three times, got knocked unconscious in a motorcycle crash and was bitten by a gibbon.

I cannot say I loved every minute of it — being eaten alive by a tiny ape doesn't spark feelings of love — but I'd love to share some of my experiences. Maybe you're looking for an adventure as well.
