After a heavy couple of days in Phnom Penh, we decided to head down to the south coast for some escapism in Sihanoukville. It was an interesting place - a small-ish beach town, on the brink of being developed into a much less chilled resort. We're glad we got to stay there before that inevitably happens. We definitely made the most of the relaxed atmosphere, staying in a gorgeous, hill-side wooden bungalow, overlooking the sea & the distant islands.
We planned to actually stay on one of the idyllic, tropical islands as well. However, the monsoons got the better of us again - the sea was too rough for any boats to cross. It was a shame there wasn't more sun for us to enjoy the beach, but we had a wonderful few days relaxing on our balcony and hanging out in the bar with the eccentric Aussie-owner, Joe, and the smiliest barman in the world, Sophor.
