How Do You Transfer Money to Cambodia? by anthonyteo
Does anyone know what's the best/easiest way to transfer money to Cambodia? I wanted to use Paypal at first, but turns out you need a Visa to open an account in Cambodia. So I need to find other means of doing so now. Any advice?
Thank you everyone for all your suggestions. :) Read More

You'll want to do enough research before you rush your way here though. There's a guy who rushed here with the wrong expectation about things and ended up hugely disappointed and flew back with a hole in his pocket. Just make sure you understand ... Read More
Window Screens? by phnom penh bound
I've seen hundreds of photos of apartments, condos and houses for rent. And all appear not to have screens on their windows and doors. So do the cockroaches, mosquitoes, termites and flies just waltz into peoples houses there?
You do mean in PP right? My apartment's windows comes with screens (I believe you mean those netted frames that prevent mosquitoes/insects from flying in). And a friend's house I visited has them too. I can tell you that even with the screens ... Read More

Cheapest Way to go to Bangkok from PP? by anthonyteo
Hi all, I am planning to go to Bangkok from PP, but I'm wondering what are the different routes I can take, and what are the expenses involved. I heard that flying there takes about $200, and taking the night bus takes about $20, but it's a 20 ...
It takes 8-9 hours for a taxi?! Then taking a bus must be out of the question. Yeah, if I'm up for an adventure - no, even if I'm up for an adventure I'll probably take the taxi like you did. It's crazy. Alright then, thanks a lot scottmallon, I ... Read More

Hi guys, thanks for the reply. So it does take 20 hours? I guess that's my main concern. I've taken 10 hours bus ride and it was okay, but I think if the duration doubles I will definitely forget about the whole idea. Read More

Hey Alisa, That's okay - I'm not looking for the biggest gathering in history. In fact, just one or two attendees will be fine; a short session of sharing and chatting over coffee sounds good enough to me. And are you busy on Sunday? Wanna join ... Read More
