Siem Reap, city on the South of Cambodia.
Angkor Wat, the famous temples in Cambodia, better known for being the setting of Lara Croft adventures. Maybe that is why it is crowded by Americans. But not always. When the sun starts to blaze, most of the tourists, who have been fooled to see the sunrise, disappear exhausted after having walked for hours. At that moment you will feel like Indiana Jones in one of his movies. You, by yourself, surrounded by a dense jungle where hundreds of temples fight to survive the invasion of Nature. An absolute wonder that expands further.

Bangkok, capital of Thailand.
If you want to spend an evening at the circus, come to Thailand. But you are going to need a week instead of an evening as you might spend the first five days in one of the endless Bangkok’s traffic jams. In order to see the clowns, you don’t even have to pay for the ticket, because you can see them in the street. Although the vaginal launch of ping-pong balls, due to the risk for the artist, is indoors. You only need a strong stomach to have a drink while the expert launchers find the perfect position with the ideal launching angle.

Phi Phi Islands, Thailand, where Leonardo di Caprio starred The Beach.
We arrived to Phi Phi Islands from Phuket, capital of sexual tourism in Thailand. The ferry had a good sample of all kinds of low cost travellers. We felt like home, mainly disembarking and seeing that the port was a hot spot for innocent tourists’ hunters. While our fellow travelers were going crazy trying to find a room, we decided to seat in an area outside a bar in front of the sea to ease our hunger with a cold beer. Experience is a rank, we thought. When all the naïve tourists have fallen for the worst hotels at the highest prices, sales will come up. A couple of hours later it poured down and it flooded the island, and also made us emerge form our lethargy. But it was too late already. Even the most remote motel was full. Pants up and flip-flops down, we walked the main street up and down so many times trying to find a decent room to stay, that half of the island knew us at the end. At the beginning we found it funny, but at the end it was not funny at all. Much less when the night came and a foul smell invaded everything. The sewer of the island had overflowed, and the crap started to mix with the dirt and we could not tell crap from mud anymore.
