An Aussie, Beers and Rural Battambang

G'day everyone! We headed back out to Rural Battambang to meet up with family prior to Pchum Benh (?).
We checked out the places we saw last time we were in the area about 4 years prior and got stuck into some beers!

A Beautiful Wedding Party in Siem Reap!
Legend from Melbs!! Cheers🍺🍺🍺
What is price of 5kg rice?
Den's bar used to be a really good French hotel, called Auberge De Mont Royal. Stayed there in 2019. Was really nice.
Australia really does have high standards when it comes to rubbish and littering. Probably the first thing I noticed was a grown woman throw her empty bottle on the ground like it’s nothing. 😂 I’m completely immune to it now
Funny, I did do that...wash the codeine down with a six pack.... I was there, on Taphul Rd a couple of weeks before this vlog was filmed...went to the Try Me place...very good, Khmer restaurant, and Himalayan resto, also the French Cafe...yeah, Brown Cafe is in Kampot, also...never went, because it just looked expensive....I will be coming back to Cambodia next year, from Australia...take my Khmer lady to Siem Reap....nice to see so many Aussie ex pats in Siem Reap...alot in Kampot, also. Cheers.
Hahahaha 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 I still have no idea why he was talking about mozzies in Thai 🤣
You made me laugh, buddy...talking about how the local girls find men....barangs, of course are favoured...they are very natural with their approach....it's refreshing. Enjoy your time....I'll be back in Cambodia as soon as I can.
Cheers Gerhard! It is fascinating given there is just...well not much happening out in the village! So a very traditional and innocent way of dating rules supreme! Cheers mate - this was a great trip and like you, can't wait to get back!
I take a fence to that gate.....most of South East Asia is like that....refuse pick up, and other infrastructure is lacking....but that's what gives these places character...I love Cambodia.
Agree 100& - there is so much charm/character about peoples homes in Cambo. Much more interesting than the west to be fair. Sounds like you have spent a bit of time in Cambodia? How often do you get there? Cheers!
Mate it has got me buggered why you don’t have many subscribers. Not to be rude to anyone but you shit all over cambo vlogs, itchy feet on the cheap and (sorry Jeremy and Claire) for reil.
G'day mate! That is a very flattering comment - thanks so much for the kind words! I just do this for fun and to document our time in Cambo with the family. I know for sure my vids are not planned and have no real purpose apart from putting a few smiles on dials...and my titles and thumbnails are shithouse too 🤣! Glad you enjoyed the vid and hope you enjoy the others on the channel too! Are you based in Cambo or elsewhere? Cheers mate!!
Moving to Siem Reap soon.
Max is getting big mate
G'day Russell! Mate you should see him now - this was near on 12 months ago, he is well and truly growing up! It's amazing but also frightening as to how quickly time passes!! Hope you are well mate! Cheers!
Great video - loved hanging out with the extended fam in the Bong :)
Hehe Cheers! It was a great arvo out in the sticks! I'll have to show you the exclusive post vlog karaoke that occurred long into the night 😁
I subscribe
Hehe Cheers Matt! Hope you enjoy our vids mate!
A kangaroo
Bingo mate! We are Aussies - hope you picked that up nice and early in the piece!!
Yup
Probably a bunch of crocodile dune Dee. Cute
Oi! Thats not a knife...😁
Ok bring it
How do you keep your beer cold?? I love heading out to the sticks! It's great to see how they live and as always am curious as to how they do things out there and why! I hope you enjoyed this video as we certainly our time out there!

Love Cambodia brand beer, Angkor is the next best for me. Best beer is a cold glass of beer on a hot day.
Agree Robert! Cambodia and Angkor get the job done! And as long as its cold (and not a Vattanac) anything on a hot day wins! Cheers mate!!
$650?? Wow. Expensive for Siem Reap.
G'day Wes! Yeah mate we got stitched up - however looking for short term rent under 6 or 12 months really limits your options and pushes up your price. If we were staying longer we would have been able to go lower...in fact if we stayed longer we would have ditched this joint after the water started leaking! The main thing that was good about this place was location - and that is about it. Are you in SR or looking to shift there? Cheers! Marc
@@MarcsMildlyInteresting Hello. I’ve been living in Siem Reap going on 2 years now. I found an apartment building built recently that’s 1 mile away from Pub Street. It’s a fully furnished, 1-bedroom on the second floor with a nice balcony overlooking a grove of coconut Palm and mango trees. It comes with a 47 inch Smart TV a washing machine, free water, free Internet and is $200 on a 6-month lease or $250 on a 3-month lease. It has free, covered parking for my rented Honda scooter ($80/month). I absolutely LOVE it here.
In Indonesia the coffee beans are shit out by a civet cat .. It's all the same shit! lol They call it Kopi Luwak ' Coffee Luwak' . I'm seriously considering moving to Seim Reap as the visa is easier than anywhere else in Asia. I have 6 month here in the UK then due to a break up I will be moving onto the next chapter of life..
I remember seeing this "Europe town" in For Riels videos. It looked very interesting and a cheaper option if you can afford to go there😀
Hey mate! Haha yep I’m only about 12 months behind getting our videos out 😁. Agree, not a lot of Khmer folk will have the opportunity to travel overseas so this is a great way to bring the world closer to them! It really was a nice spot!! Cheers mate!
Thanks you for sharing video and visit my country Cambodia I wishing you all enjoy my beautiful country Cambodia God bless you all thanks 🙏😇🙏🍀👍❤️💞❤️🏵️🌹🌸🥰🫶
Thank you so much! We love Cambodia and really enjoyed out day out at the Euro Park! Thanks so much for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed the video! Cheers!
Just small scale models
True Frank, but it's still a pretty impressive area and gives the locals a taste of what things are like in Europe. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Hey family travelers, I love the new Siem Reap International Airport and this airport has jet bridges that can be used to walk from the gate to the plane
@@Shark30006 hey mate! It sure does! Much more convenient than walking in the tarmac then up the old staircases! We hope to fly direct there one day from Australia - it is certainly big enough for large planes! Thanks for watching mate!!
It’s feels like in Europe
Hey Lee - absolutely mate! They did a great job to make the area feel very european! A great way for locals to experience it without having to leave the country. Thanks for watching!
Yo I'm in Phnom Penh now I live across the street from the King., Hu Sen lives around the corner however his green men are very friendly. Your welcome to stay at my house if you like, I just want to talk about this Aussie man who disrespected me and my family.
Sorry what are you talking about? Honestly it sounds extremely interesting 🤔
Hey Alex! Ahh there you go - assume it's a nice area if it's good enough for the most powerful man in the country! Ah these are older videos mate from last year so we are well and truly back in Australia. Thanks for the offer though! I hope you didn't have too much drama with the Aussie that had a go at you and the family? Not great to hear other fellow countrymen bringing our good name into disrepute!
@BIGJED75 agree mate - hopefully no Aussie trouble makers on the loose in PP!
G'Day Big M , Noice place to chill noice price , even a kinals kitchen too , bit sus tho too clean ! go one get outa there , Catchya
Maddo!!! Mate it was such a good little apartment! I mean there was so much packed into such a small space! All good we just made the bus hahah cheers mate!!!
You're excited with the Hotel ❤
Absolutely mate! It was such a good room! I was also excited about sleeping on such a comfy mattress for once haha! Thanks for watching!
Try palace gate hotel and resort (resort, not the residence) same sort of price but even better than this and right next to everything. Opposite the royal palace entrance.
G'day Tim!! Might have to give that a crack next time mate! I have seen that one online and agree it looks fantastic! When in PP we are usually out and about so much we never take time to relax, might be nice to get some poolside time! Thanks for the tip Tim and cheers for watching mate!
@MarcsMildlyInteresting no problems buddy. 😀 Sim Boutique hotel is nice too and cheaper. The $1 room upgrade gets you a bath and a much bigger room. 😉 I've stayed at quite a few hotels in PP as I have a travel company in Cambodia.
I think you 2 should get a room
Haha which 2 mate, me and Jeremy 🤣🤣??
Great review mate I'll be back at the start of September
Cheers mate! It’s a really nice place!! Nice one - How long are you going back for?
@@MarcsMildlyInteresting just 2 weeks mate missus wants to glamp at tatai river the going to drive to Siem reap via Battambang to see our friends/family for a week.
@JJ-vy2rh nice mate! Short sharp trip - hopefully get some nice down time in amongst catching up with all the fam!
@@MarcsMildlyInteresting we should you know the drill you help out while your there
The complete kitchen is a nice touch. I like cooking my own dishes.
Absolutely Sojean! It was totally unexpected but so well set out and a great design too! What would you cook there mate? Thanks for watching!!
G'day everyone! What do you reckon? Would you stay here? We were so impressed with how well the room was set out! Would definitely stay here again!
❤❤❤❤❤🎉
❤️❤️ 🙏🙏 😁😁
Your clip poopped up for my view. Pleasant suprise !
Ah there you go! Hope you enjoy our videos! Thanks so much for watching!
That europark looks interesting, I've never visited it.
G'day - it was very interesting! Almost like an oasis in the middle of hustle and bustle of Phnom Penh! Worth a look if you are down that way for sure! Cheers for watching - hope you enjoyed!
I use to go there when I were 4years old
Hello! That is interesting, is it the same as it was when you were 4?
Well come ❤ Cambodia
Thank you so much!!
Evening from Phnom Penh ❤
G'day! Thanks for watching - hope you enjoyed it!! Have you been to the Europark before? Cheers!
We had the best day out, although the waffle's ratio of batter to coconut chunks was slightly off compared to the best-in-class version we are fortunate to have in SR. The juice was really good. Can't say I've had better.
I'm sure I made a comment earlier and it has disappeared.
G'day!!! Yep can't wait to do more of these with you both! Agree looking back at that waffle - it looked impressive but wasn't a patch on the gold standard in SR!! Might be worth making another trip next year just for some juice though!! Chicka Chow!
Congratulations
Thanks Mark! This was a huuuuuuggge day!! Hope you enjoyed the vid! Cheers - Marc
Is Siem reap a permanent Home?
G'day Mark - We live in Melbourne, Australia full time and travel back and forth to Siem Reap as often as we can. My wife is from there and I have been going to SR for over 10 years now so it is a very familiar place - which we love! Where are you based mate? Thanks for watching - Cheers, Marc

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!
In case you didn't know, gated community Peng Huot used to be a huge lake and wetland area. We used to come here during weekend for family relaxing and fishing way back in the 60s. Weve been staying here for over ten years now after our retirement from US. We love the area as it's quiet and peaceful hidden out of PP City. Be open minded and kind whenever possible as life is short to do the things we don't love doing. Peace from a genocide survivor ✌️
G'day! Ah so it was all wetlands? Seems that a lot of wetlands south of PP have been filled in and developed over the last decade or so. I hope some are eventually preserved, as much as Peng Huot was a lovely place i'm sure it use to be beautiful when you visited it back in the day. Sounds like you have lived an incredible life - very wise words my friend, thank you so much for sharing and for watching! Cheers - Marc
What is it with these asian countries building European style architectural theme parks?🤔
Then why some European country build Asian architecture in their theme park?
Tourist.
@saangsoeurn1248 they don't come to Asia to experience what their home country look like. They been there, done that already. They come to Asia to experience exotic cultural differences.
@@remhk6672 domestic tourism mate.
@@saangsoeurn1248 absolutely 👍 A great experience for locals who are not in a position to travel the world.
Peng Hout is the name of the Borey. And Hout is also the founder's name.
There you go! Thanks for the information! It is such a beautiful area! Thanks for watching!
Well how about that. If I type "Eiffel Tower in Phnom Penh", this video is at the top of the Google list. Good on the SEO. 👍 Hope all is well. Maybe see you in December. Cheers!
G'day Dave! Ah there you go! The video has certainly grown view wise so maybe it's being searched a bit! Ah we will be here in Aus for the remainder of this year but looking like spending a decent stint there in 2025 so might see you if you are around there then! Cheers mate hope you are well otherwise!
G'day Marc & Kinal 😊, hope all is going well for you 🙏, in life Marc , as you are well aware , there is the upper crust , and then there are the lower echelons of society 🤪, one guess as to where I am among the masses 🤣, great tour of Euro Park , and the surrounding neighborhood 😊, wish there were more trees throughout the Kingdom 🙏, nothing like a fresh coconut waffle , and an ice cold homemade orange juice 😊, life is good my friend , Cheers
Brian!! How are you going mate?!?!? We are well - freezing our way through a Melbourne winter looking back at our time in KH last year in these videos! Agree, seeing such a green landscape made me wonder how much nicer urban parts of the kingdom would be with a bit of foliage, ah well.. Good to hear life is treating you well there - we will see you soon mate! Chicka chow!
