Join us as we spend our first day exploring country #11, Cambodia! In today's vlog, we get our first impressions in Siem Reap. We start off with some tasty local dishes and the biggest market in town. Then we get to meet some Hero rats at Apopo, an NGO helping to clear Cambodia and the world of landmines. Finally, we end the night with a stroll around Pub Street. #siemreap #cambodia #firstimpressions

I want to visit Cambodia again🇰🇭 in Khmer new year❤ but it can't because I'm very busy😢 I love Cambodia🇰🇭🇰🇭 and khmer people they are so kindness❤❤ Happy Khmer new year Khmer people around the world🎉🎉❤❤
Welcome 🙏🇰🇭
You should spend more time visiting many temples through out siem reap. Have a great holiday guys. Love ❤️ your content so much 🇰🇭 🇰🇭 🇰🇭
Thank you so much! ❤
Wow you guy I hope you enjoy the visit in Siem Reap Angkor Watt. Have fun and be safe Sarah and Seunghyun. I'm from Cambodia but I living in Canada over 42 years now and I thank you for sharing your Video, good luck guy.💖💖💖😍😍😍😘😘😘
Thank you so much! Your home country was very welcoming to us~ We appreciate your kind words 💕
Not in a thousand years would I have thought of rats as lovable. Your video may have changed my bias toward them. They are so friendly and BIG!! Thanks for such an interesting vlog, loved it!❤❤
They were such smart, curious creatures! We weren't expecting them to be so gentle - we were so lucky to have a chance to meet them. Now we're thinking about maybe getting our own pet rats 😁 As always, thank you for watching and so glad you enjoyed the video 💕
@@twobetweenIf you ever get a rat (especially if it is an African Pouch Rat), please make a short video of it!😊. BTW, I know that you have finished your 23 country itinerary but I am wondering if you guys are still planning to travel again in 2024? No need to respond if I am intruding but I know your videos will be coming to an end soon so I am trying to avoid any withdrawal effects lol😂
@@johnlarc5532 Sadly, we aren't planning any major trips in 2024 except to visit family in Korea, but since we post so slowly, I think it will take the rest of the year to post all our 23 country content😅And no worries about intruding, we're happy to share and appreciate all your support😊
@@twobetween Thanks so much for taking time to respond! Enjoy your home trip to Korea and I look forward to your next 2023 adventure vlog!
I believe the only downside is that their lifespan is very short 3-5 years
❤❤❤
Thank you for both of you sharing your experienced in Cambodia. And hope to see both of you next time.
Thank you for coming 🙏🏻🇰🇭📍

Thank you for your interested in Cambodia.
🇰🇭❤
First of all, WELCOME TO CAMBODIA THE KINGDOM OF WONDER. I really want to see how expensive or cheap it is in cambodia. So, can you do the budget breakdown of cambodia? if you can. I hope you enjoy the Khmer New Year, too. have fun and stay safe.
Hey so sorry we missed this comment earlier! We sadly won't have the time to do a whole budget breakdown video, but we're happy to share a ballpark of what things cost when we visited:
- Hotels: $20-30 per night
- Meals: $2-4 each per person, $0.50-2 per drink
- Transportation: $1.50-3 to get across town via tuktuk
- Angkor Wat: $37 per person for 1 day pass, $20 for all-day tuktuk driver including sunrise
- Other activities: $5-10 i.e. museums, massages, etc
- Visa: $30 per person on arrival (apparently they sometimes charge an extra 'stamp' fee but we didn't get charged)
Our final total for 5 days was $405 with about $100 of that being just Angkor Wat tickets/driver... So roughly $80 per day/$40 per person (without Angkor Wat would be about $60 per day/$30 per person)
hope u guys have a nice trip
Welcome to cambodai 🙏🏻🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭

คือความแปลกประหลาดของนักท่องเที่ยวจีนจะพูดให้ฟัง คือเมื่อ 20 ปีก่อนนี่เหมือนนักท่องเที่ยวต่างชาติฝรั่งนี่แหละ ขี่รถมาเที่ยวเห็นอยู่ทั่วไปรถป้ายทะเบียนจีน แต่เดี๋ยวนี้หายหมด แต่จำนวนนักท่องเที่ยวจีนก็ยังเพิ่มขึ้นทุกปีแต่ไม่รู้ว่าหายไปอยู่ที่ไหน
Cambodia ❤❤ you
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤🇰🇭💞🙏🏻
12:41 so in khmer songkran is called songkran AKA khmer new year
Thank you, we appreciate the info 😊
If you want to learn more about Apopo you can check out their website here 👉 apopo.org/
(not sponsored, just fell in love with the rats and their work😉)
You messed up the amok dish. We usually scooped the amok and placed it on top of the rice one scoop at a time. If you mixed it up all at once, it tends to get mushy and less flavorful. I wish I found a big rat like those landmine rats when I lived in Srok Khmer and Thailand... 😀
Condensed milk for breakfast 😂heart attack.
Breakfast of champions 😉💪
Happy Cambodia Maha Songkran Khmer new year 🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭💖💜❤️🥰🥰🥰⚜️⚜️⚜️🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Those clams you see sitting out are getting cooked by the sun. That's how they do it.
Thank you for the info! Yeah, we thought it was some kind of sauce making/fermenting process. We appreciate it
this is cambodia
most people wearing jacket not because it's hot or cold
it's because they are using some kind of body lotion that can change their skin color to white skin
Happy Songkran, thai new year. Please try Hormok in 🇹🇭, it's phenomenal. Greetings from 🇨🇭
Thank you! And we appreciate the recommendation 😊 Happy Songkran!!
Welcome to the wild wild East 😅.
We called “Songkran”
Amok is the best Khmer Traditional cuisine, flavors and tasty. lok lak also the one
😊❤🇰🇭🇰🇭🤗🤗🥰🥰🥳🥳
❤️
How long are you going to stay in my beloved country? Have a nice day!
👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🙏🙏🙏
Pass app prices are cheaper then grab from my experience
Hlo couples. Visit Kerala state in India 🇮🇳. The Gods own country..! 🌴❤️
Hopefully someday we can visit Kerala 😊
ជម្រាបសួរ Jumreab sur Hello 🙏🏻
🇰🇭🇺🇸❤️👍 !
`noooo you don't have mix ahmok in the rice like that 😕
haha thank you for letting us know - we still thought it was delicious this way but will eat it the right way next time 😊
passapp you were using not grab
nope, it was grab
Loved the segment on rats! Ladies, don't wear short shorts. Wear longer shorts or culottes, skirts, etc. This is a conservative culture. I traveled thru se asia for 9 months and only wore shorts when I went for a run.
Glad you enjoyed! Not sure when you visited Siem Reap, but there were many local and foreign women wearing short shorts and skirts when we were there. We dress based on how others are dressed, and this city was very shorts-filled 😆 but we wholeheartedly agree for more conservative parts of SEA (and of course for visiting temples). We would suggest to pack both and choose outfits based on what others are wearing around you~ each country and city in SEA has its own vibe and the dress code varies 😊
@@twobetween I can understand this. I was there a long time ago and I tend to be conservative in certain places.
@@debrak3594 we agree conservative is.a good way to go to be safe and respectful. We hope you enjoyed your trip around SEA - 9 months probably gave a lot of great time to explore :)
In Cambodia, we call new years as “Sangkran Chnam Thmei” meaning to enter a new year.🇰🇭🔫💦
The water gun and powder isnt part of our but game is
Angkor(UN-Go) is the correct pronunciation
The Khmer people just got tired of correcting the tourist pronunciation of their country
Thank you for letting us know! We read about this earlier but since we have a global audience of mostly English speakers, we use the anglicized pronunciations for famous places. We do the same with our own country's cities too (i.e. Seoul is not pronounced 'soul' in Korean, but we say it that way to non-Koreans since it is more easily understood 😊)
the man was a policeman going to work
lol yup, the white drunk policeman 😂
Hanoi mines not Khmer Rouge
Fish Amok again, Khmer cuisine has so much more to offer than "FISH AMOK!!!" ...
Which dish would you recommend for first time visitors? We always try to taste the most ‘famous’ foods in our first days in a new country so felt like fish amok was a natural choice (plus, it was really tasty, so we’re glad we tried it first 😊)
I drained out my bank account by going to Thailand and spend 8 weeks there
Are you guys going to China?
Not this year, but we hope we get a chance to visit someday
Just bring small USD bill and Thai bht both are accepted all over .
Folks who wear BLACK colors in a hot climate are cooking themselves 10 centigrade degrees higher than white/light colored clothes.
Yup… but light clothing gets stained too easily, so because we travel full time w/ only a small pack, we choose dark clothing to avoid having to wastefully buy new clothing as often as we would need to if we wore light colors. But at 36+ degrees with high humidity, it still feels hot regardless 😆
Kamen
Khmer coppy " Songkran " from Thailand . They are name Claim bodia. Ha ha
One of those people who (unconsciously) intones nearly every sentence as a question.
Nope, not unconscious. It's a way of emphasizing novelty/uncertainty to highlight surprise or unfamiliarity with a topic. Uptalk is mostly an American style of expressing though, so if you're not American, you might not have picked up on the nuance 😉 (For contrast, check out Sarah's voiceover on rats.. you'll notice nearly every sentence has a downward inflection)
Welcome to Cambodia ❤
❤❤❤
How come I can see you posted a video when I look at the home screen there's nothing but when I type in your name I see the video😅
We think since we don't post very often, RUclips doesn't recommend us on the homepage for our viewers 😅
Welcome to Cambodia❤❤❤
Thank you! 😊
Visiting Angkor wat just like you walk through ancient era.
Thanks. Your production has a snappy, happy vibe. Well done. This is a great introduction to Siem Reap where I live.
Thank you! You live in a fun city, we had a great time in Siem Reap
