10 years with my Khmer wife...beautiful, funny, warm, cheeky, overall the best woman I have ever met and I am so lucky to be with her. We are best friends and only apart when we are at work. Her family are lovely...and funny, warm, and cheeky!! The women that is. The guys are welcoming and treat me like a brother. And always up for a laugh and a good time. We have lived in NZ for years now (travelling back and forth) and my side of the family LOVES her, as do her colleagues because of her warmth, honesty, skill, and work ethic. And she's gorgeous. Our conversation now is where we want to live....just back from Cambodia and it is SO tempting.......
Looks like you found the perfect blend of love, laughter, and adventure in your life!
Married a Han Chinese. She devastated my life.
@@AutumninAsiahey 👋 man 👨 ❤ you're lucky the only cheapest cost of living in USA 🇺🇸 America is the trailer camper mobile home 🏡 retirees in Florida state USA America 🇺🇲 🇺🇸 🌎 that's what I can afford with my social security income ✔ ✅ checked California state Texas state Hawaii and many other's very expensive $ even shared roommates 😢$ 👎 not happy I'm planning to go back my Cambodia Country at age 62 built my own hutch 😂😅
@@mysonjimmy1337what are you waiting for?
Good time to come over. You won't have to build, there are loads of homes with land ready to move into all over the country selling for less than you can build for.
Location location location... don't forget.
You can rent for even less. No Capex. $1000/MTH including rent will give you a good life and enough spare cash to die extravagantly if you want.
Don't wait, you're waiting money.

Good content as always keep up the great work⚡️🇰🇭🎞
Thank you very much !!
Just returned from a 3 week m/bike road trip in Cambodia. I’ve toured extensively across Asia but first time in Cambodia. Full of beautiful friendly people. Food was great and accommodation very good. People say Cambodia is 20 years behind Thailand - but that’s ok by me.
I hope your trip was as enjoyable as mine are. Thanks you for watching!!!

I met a Khmer woman online, and we communicate by video everyday. She is a receptionist at a hotel. She is beautiful, speaks good English and very caring and loving person.
She can't wait to see me in September when I plan to retire in Siem Reap. She lives born and raised in Siem Reap. I can't wait to meet her.
Yes, I feel ya man. Exciting days ahead for you. See ya when you get here.

Thank you. I haven't had any negative comments yet.
Thanks for watching !!
I love the Beautiful Scenery of Cambodia Thank You 🙂❤👍
Thank you too and thanks for watching the video !!
Great note 🗒️ 😊🎉
Glad you think so! As always, Thanks for watching the video !!
Great video. First time I see your video. I am thinking about retiring abroad real soon. You said that we should not look for a girlfriend in Cambodia. I don't think I could do that. If I was to retire in Cambodia, I would know nobody there. With no friend and no source of affection, it must feel lonely. I want to retire abroad to find a nice younger woman and not to feel lonely. And I bet many, if not most men, retiring abroad think like that. And what is wrong with that?
As long as you both love each other.
But loneliness can lead to solitude and you can learn much about yourself. Just don't rush it too much. I've seen many men get hurt and abused by jumping into relationships too fast.
But it is up to you.
Thanks for your comment and for watching the video !!!
your the first expat I've found in Cambodia, Told my brother years ago thats were I want to be. My question is, does the average person speak english?
Thank you for your comment.
No, most people here don't speak English but in the big cities and touristy areas they do.
I hope that helps.
Thanks for watching my video !!
That is Great Advice about Not looking for a wife let it happen...but we both know how Expats are They can't be that patient. ..lol ...
Yup, so true. Thanks for watching the videos !!
I went to Thailand not looking for a wife. I went there to party and chase women. When my future Thai wife walked in and i looked at her , i immediately said to myself i was getting married. She was the most beautiful woman i had ever seen, and still is. Been married 18 years now. We were together for one year before we married. Went thru a lot of toads to find my princess.
G'Day , Been with my Khmer partner for over ten years , her family is very extended and always welcoming towards me , as she says to me our family 😎😀😀
Yes, same here but not 10 years though. Thanks for the comment and for watching the video !!
I have been to Cambodia and known women from the country but never dated one. They have a unique beautiful that is different from other places. I'm not saying they are unattractive because they are not but for me it's a Beauty a little hard to get attracted to...
Yes, they do have a unique beauty. Thanks again !!
We love the video, classic culture and different . 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you for watching y videos !!
But khmer women also have a keen sense of business . They are the ones who buy and sell at the markets. In Angkor period they also worked as body garde for the the khmer kings. Their knoledge of khmer martial arts such as Bokator etc amazing.
Totally agree with the business minded. Mostly women working in the markets. Thanks for watching !!
Is big age gap acceptable and do you see it….?
Yes, I do. Locally the age gap seems to be about 15 yrs. With expats.... well it could be substantial. Most people don't care, as long as they love each other.
Thanks for watching the videos !!
Congratulations! So happy for you. Are there many young Cambodian women there speak English? How did you meet?
In the cities there are English-speaking girls.
I met my girlfriend at a RUclipsr's meetup we have often. Many non-TYers come and she came with her sister and I sat down to talk with a subscriber and it was also next to Vanna and we just started talking.
Thanks for watching !!
Both of you are delightful. Thank you for the explanation 🙏🏼
Thank you for the advice. I am coming to Cambodia this year for sure. I pray that I have a nice, good gf .. I am tired of living in Canada, especially after everything is crazingly expensive
My best advice is don't go looking for a gf, just let it happen. If you find a "GF" working at a bar, chances are you will end up sad and broke. I've seen it many times. The same goes for dating apps.
Just make friends with the locals and you eventually meet that someone.
Thanks for watching the video !!
I know quite a lot of Khmer women and frankly, they are as diverse as western women. You probably just attract a certain type. You seem like a quietly spoken polite person. The more traditional ladies would appreciate that. But I tell you, some of my girlfriends are mighty! (Speaking from a women’s point of view).
I appreciate your insights and the kind words. It's great to hear different perspectives on this topic.
Thanks for watching the video !!
Are the Khmer women you describe as mighty living in Cambodia?
Great and happy looking family … best wishes to all three…
Thank you so much 🙂
perfect 10 minute video ;)
Thank you very much !!
Nice video. I live in PP, and I've been dating a Khmer lady for the last few months, and she's quite wonderful.
That's awesome! Thanks for the comment and for watching !!
Hi Kelly, I've been living - in PP Cambodia for nearly ten - months now. I find women here a bit - shy (ian),
and the language barrier makes things harder also.
I noticed the woman you are dating is quite younger than you are. I heard that Khmer woman do not
like large - age differences in relationships. Also, the government does not condone younger women
marrying older foreign men.
A few women here will make eye - contact with me, or say hello, but most do not.
Smile and say hello and they will usually smile back. I think the best way to meet a Khmer woman is to make a lot of Khmer friends, get invited to their festivities.
As far as age differences, that may not be entirely true.
Many Asian women like men about 15 years older than them. The reasons why is that an older man usually has sown his wild oats and is more established in work and society. That gives the woman stability in the relationship.
For many years, especially in arranged marriages, this was traditional.
Great questions!!! Thank you for your comment !!!
@@AutumninAsia Having a
smile at all times is a must
in Cambodia.Being polite
is also required to be welcomed
here.
Wow, views are going up and UP👍BTW you did not mention financial obligations of relationship and some obligations to GF/wife family.
Thank you, yes views are going in the right direction.
I didn't mention financial obligations, if any, as far as the family is concerned.
That would be more for a cost-of-living video, but I can see your line of thinking.
I was just talking about how Khmer women are and not about what it takes other than treating them like queens to make them happy.
Good question, I might have to look into that topic. Thanks for watching the videos !!
Have a wonderful time in Cambodia sir. And now I am your new subscriber please stay connected and have a great day 👍
Thanks for coming and thanks for the sub and watching the video !!
That’s great if you find a good Khmer woman she is very loyalty
Yes I agree. Thanks for the comment and for watching the video.
Interesting to learn the pronunciation, "Khmai." My Thai lady friend pronounces it "Kmeng."
"Khnmai" is the way they taught me in language school here. Thanks for watching !!
Nice laid back video thank you. I’ve visited Cambodia only once, but plan to revisit for the Angkor Wat experience. Interesting insight on Cambodian women, and applies to the women of many Asian countries. For me, they are a far better option than Western women.
Thanks for watching and for the comment !!
Hi, how come there are uncollected bags of trash everywhere?
They don't have trash collection?
That's a very good question, James. Yes, there is trash collection but most cannot afford it.
With the average monthly salary of a Khmer person (@$200mo.), there are other obligations such as feeding their family. The trash problem is basically a SE Asian issue. You may see it just about everywhere.
Thanks for watching !!
Is it true that in order for a man to marry a Cambodian lady we have to have a $2500.00 in income coming in?
Yes, that is what I have read. Thank you for your comment and for watching !!!
I thought cambodia has a law about women getting married to foreign guys over the age of 50....but i also heard if the guy can prove he has a certain monthly income/bank account then exceptions can be made 🤷♂️🤔
Someone told me that it had changed but I haven't checked it out yet. He basically said the same thing.
Thank you for the comment and watching the video !!
@@AutumninAsia thanks for the reply ☝️👍...I actually can understand that law because it seems they are just trying to make sure a guy can provide basic monthly needs of the cambodian woman(not much to ask🤷♂️)...I also heard a village wedding is more important to the families in cambodia 🇰🇭 than a legal document...like where they have monks,family,dancing,food ,etc etc...the woman's family would then view you as married(regardless of you not being legally married on paper)
The age limit has been removed several years ago.
Why marry them?
HI Are you in Siem Reap I plan on visiting Cambodia soon. Would you be available to share your insights and either coffer or a beer. The choice is yours !!
Yes I can. I always enjoy meeting my viewers.
Yes, I am in Siem Reap.
I met a girl on dating app. She lives in siem Reap. I want to visit Cambodia and see her. Is it a good idea?
Well, you only live once. It is totally up to you. You never really know.
Thank you for your comment and for watching !!
Kmer ruled over a huge empire 900 years ago.A proud people.
Yup. Thanks for watching !!
Pride has no place in cultural mind set.thats a white thing.
SO HOW DO I FIND A KAMAI WOMAN? I PLAN TO VISIT CAMBODIA. SOON.
Make friends with Khmer people and do things with them and you could meet someone that way.
Where r u based?
Siem Reap, Cambodia. It's a town with about 135,000 people. I think it is very nice.
Thanks for watching !!
if u honor to them they will honor back to u, Do u permanent want to live there or just have fun? Do u look for wife or looking to children by your age?
Personally myself I plan to live here premanently and no more children. It wouldn't be right to them because I am too old and would probably die before they are grown.
Thamks for watching the videos !!
I haven't seen any videos of foreigners and their family/friends interacting? I was wondering if that was a culture thing.
No, I don't think is a cultural thing. At events you will see many locals with cameras and phones filming family things. Thanks for watching the video !!
True base on real life experience
Yes, it is. I also did a bit of research on a few things.
Thanks for watching the video !!
where are you in cambodia
Siem Reap.
Yeah, you are correct😂🎉
Hey, thanks for watching !! Glad you liked it !!
How old is this dude?
I am 65. If you were wondering if the girl on the thumbnail is my GF, that is just a stock photo.
Thanks for watching !!!!
When is the wedding that is also what they want its not like western live with them
I'm too old to get married !!
Thanks for the comment and for watching the video !!
@4:47 that is because temples have rules on how people can dress! :)
Yes, they do. But still, their dress is quite conservative and elegant when they go to a wedding or party.
Thank you for the comment and for watching the video !!
Yes, arranged marriage has been a tradition in Cambodia for centuries and is still practiced today, both in Cambodia and by Cambodians abroad. Traditionally, parents would choose a spouse for their children and work out the arrangement with the other family. The children would know who they were marrying and the wedding date when everything was finalized. Nowadays, that tradition has loosened up a little bit as Cambodia is more westernized. And it doesn’t mean foreigners can’t find a good wife in Cambodia. Cambodian people are very friendly. In fact, Cambodia was named as the friendliest country on the planet for many years in the row.
Great information. Thank you for your comment and watching the video !!!
The one I lived with wasn't all that much fun very beautiful woman but a very sneaky and conniving woman I would think they would be more women that were honest and there may well be but that wasn't the case for me
Sorry to hear that. Good luck in the future !!
Khmer 👍🙏✌️🇰🇭
Thank you very much !!
I’ve been married to my Khmer wife for over 10 years, her family is our family, she definitely ain’t submissive she’s very headstrong and vocal on her opinions.
We got married in Australia and Battambang, now Cambodia is my second home.
Some are, some aren't. I think in general timid is the norm, if they have a good and equal relationship.
Thanks for the comment !!!
This is your life so it's Right to you and that is all that matters....
Agreed !! Thanks for your comments !!
Sounds like a good happy marriage.
Thank you for your comment and for watching the videos !!
I’ll salute you Sir! I’m Khmer woman Americain after listening to your perception toward Khmer women I’ll give you 10/10 . lol! I’m so glad that you’ve found your happiness and wish only you and your future endeavors a peaceful and a prosperous life made in Cambodia . Thank you so much . Please enjoyed your stay ! 🙏❤️🥰🇰🇭🇺🇸🌺🌴
Thank you very much for your comment. I just presented it from my observations here in Cambodia. I'm glad you liked it!
Thank you very much for watching the video !!
No one ever meets a woman older than them.
It does happen but generally, they meet younger.
Thanks for watching !!

Thank you !!
Nice looking family… you look happy… that’s important…
Thank you. I am living my best life. Cambodia has changed me since I've moved here.
Thank you for the comment and for watching the video !!
My Thai wife won’t let me go to the wet market with her because she says they will raise the prices 😂
That's why I let my girlfriend go and shop. Thank you for your comment and for watching !!
Has all that garbage on the side of the road been dumped, or is it waiting for collection?
Kinda both. Trash is a big problem in most of SE Asia. Whatever can be recycled will. The rest will be burnt, and some will stay for a long time.
Thanks for watching !!!
Once you go Asian you never go Caucasian, wink. Living in the mountains of Mindanao Philippines for 10 years now.
Not too hot sometimes up in the hills, Right?
When i visited Cambodia i found them extremely hostile and belligerent and it was from the whole public, not just a few. Now in their defense i made a mistake and wore my sf hat from Vietnam. But i spent one night and left. As for the women i was shocked that i never saw one good looking woman during my short stay.
That was a big whoops!!
Thank you for your comment and watching !!
My grandmother is Kmae but from a tribe which she ran away from coz she's headstrong and wasn't happy about something.She's definately not submissive in the slightest but a brilliant woman in every way.
Glad you found a great wife. That is always a plus.
Thank you for watching !!
My wife lost half her family in the killing fields (including her father).
The country tore itself apart so she never completed middle school.
Her surviving mother married her up with her first cousin to get them both out of the country.
From their hot-humid village they landed in a cold Connecticut winter and were assigned labor jobs.
(Sincere Thank you to Catholic Services!)
Within two-years they had an infant daughter and risked all on news of jobs in Las Vegas.
They landed in the roughest part of town (Naked City) and set about building their dream.
Within ten years, they acquired workable English language skills, a rental home, a nice suburban residence, and a son.
Then her husband was stricken with cancer and died.
.
Since I have known her (10-years), I have never heard this woman complain about anything.
Each morning she gets up early, says her prayers and sets about her day.
When her head hits the pillow around midnight she says, "Thank you God for this happy place."
Seven days a week she does that again, and again.
.
She is a daily reminder that life is all about Living in Gratitude, smiling and not letting adversity get the better of you.
Living the Dream with my Cambodian Queen ❤
I am sorry to hear sad stories about those times.
Your wife sounds like an incredibly strong and resilient person.
Faith is always a strong foundation.
Thank you very much for taking the time to write and post that comment.

Thank you for the comment. I asked my girlfriend about your question and she said not locally. it would have to be from Australia or someplace. She said it would be very expensive.
Aussie beef or lamb usually frozen and imported found in some marts ... i have a selection around me , also depends where you are ...
AI generated image for the thumbnail - good idea!
It is a beautiful photo but I don't think it is AI.
Again, thanks for the comments !!
If I didn’t already have a filipina fiancé, I would be open to a Cambodian woman. I had a Cambodian friend and coworker who was a very good person. Hopefully an English speaking women can be found. Learning Cambodian would be possible, but difficult. My Filipina girlfriend says Cambodians are a lot like Filipinos.
I hear ya. and having been married to a Filipina for 7 years, I agree with you.
Thanks for watching the video !!

Thank you for your comment and also for watching my videos !!!!
Saying women are submissive because of tradition is something I hear a lot. It doesn't answer the question. "Tradition" just means "long time". So they're submissive because they've been submissive for a long time? Nonsensical. It shows little understanding.
The real reason women are submissive is not so nice to say or hear for Westerners.
That is very true and I agree with you. For me, it is sometimes difficult the way women are submissive here in Cambodia. I want a GF/Wife to be my equal.
As I had mentioned in the video, Cambodian women will be submissive but only if they want to be.
Trust me, they can be powerful-willed and independent individuals.
I was trying to show culturally what women here in Cambodia generally are like.
Thank you for your comment and thank you for watching the video !!
My wife is Cambodian! Far more ethical and a team player!
Yup, I agree !!!!
khmer women are submissive, but not weak. also, there’s nothing wrong with showing femininity. in the west, the word “submissive” sounds like a taboo or something you don’t want to be…weird.
I agree with you for sure. Thank you for watching the videos !!
33 years later and still married to my Khmer wife.
Be selective. Don't pretend to be wealthy. Don't break any hearts or destroy young girls' lives. It's not Thailand.
When dating Khmer ladies remember that they're taking a bigger risk than you are in the relationship stakes.
A lot depends on you.
Spot on. Thank you for that comment. That hits the nail on the head !!
Kymer women are not low like Thai or Phillipino women but for what purpose you want with them? Chinese Women are the highest class women on Earth, Then Korean
OK. Thank you for your comment also thank you very much for watching !!
