Do you guys have any advice on how to avoid being run over, dragged, hit or any other form of undesirable contact with the local traffic? Namely, advice for walking on foot is needed. I highly doubt I will ever drive in Cambodia.

I am planning on going to Cambodia in September of 2016, I'll be 29 by then with a TEFL 120 Hour Certificate. The last year has seen my life turned upside down and I think I just need to get back to basics and take myself out of my comfort zone. ...
Thank you! I've been in regular contact with some people in Phnom Penh and I definitely think $3000 on arrival is more then enough, could probably get by on less to be honest. Is the Russian Market area the best spot for affordable/safe housing? ... Read More

I spent 8 months in Tokyo with an initial $1500. How you get $3000 in Phnom Penh for a month or two is beyond me...What are you guys doing there and how much are you spending? The setup phase is always straightforward if you stick to a budget, a ... Read More
