    Thank you so much for the shout out and for supplying ride footage for the next few weeks of news moto! It was so great to see all of our old haunts in this video - Kampot has a lot to offer, much more than you would expect for such a small place. Looking forward to the next installment!

    I'm living in SR and some of my friends love Kampot. It looks boring AF to me to live there. Dusty roads when dry and muddy roads in the rainy season. Nice video though!

    • @itchyfeetonthecheap
      @itchyfeetonthecheap  Год назад +2

      Retirement in Cambodia often comes down to Kampot vs Siem Reap. I don't know which one I'd prefer. SR has more infrastructure - I'd like to be able to go to a movie theatre. Kampot has more nature - the river is very appealing. The For Riel people have lived in both and they prefer SR too. I think I'd try a couple months in both before deciding.

    Hoping for a really good burger in Siem Reap ! --- Supposedly a lot of good food there ? --- It's my ideal retirement destination for super cheap comfortable living. --- Great look @ Kampot - close enough for me ! Too remote and isolated for my liking. More my style to fly from SR to Bangkok for some really awesome food and looking around a bit ? Maybe a quality cheap medical checkup while there for a few days. --- Enjoyed watching this though just don't need to go. I love pepper & enjoyed that. Overall a nice trip. Keep em coming !!!

      true but unfortunately the expats from pp and sihanoukville and the drug addicted social problems are taking a toll on once quiet kampot the police should drug test the westerners if arrested and act accordingly.

      I took tourists there quite a few times, later on they relocated shop to the pool area. No one welcome and showed us around the plantation. Sad that i have to choose The Plantation for their great service.

      @@vannakkh964 la plantation is for tourists... it's fake and overpriced. Call Chris at Bo Tree and arrange a private tour.
