Share information about teaching ESL in Cambodia here. Zaman International School is looking for ESL teachers.			Where can I teach ESL in Cambodia?
			Tourists take a tour bus from Bangkok to Siem Reap, via the seedy border town of Poi Pet. I saw a lot of farms and red, red dirt. I love this Little Boy Blue style haystack.
			Of course, there are lots of photos of Angkor, a world heritage site. Here is a shot of Naga Causeway. My favorite temple was Bayon.
			This array of temples was, by far, the most impressive I have ever seen.
			I love that signature Angkor expression. I really had a good time travelling on my own. A three day pass was US$60. I was also obligated to hire a motodriver, even though I could have driven around myself.
			Here you can see how many tourists were there. Nearby the temples was a place where the monks lived
			I absolutely love trees growing out of buildings. I think this guy is the monkey king.
			Here is Baksei Chamkrong, a cool temple and some classic photos photos of Angkor Wat.
			I had actually met this girl in Tibet six months previously. I enjoyed meeting many Japanese people.
			Among the grandeur of the ancient temples, there was still poverty. These kids are too skinny, and they looked very listless. There were also elephant rides available.
			There are many houses like this in the countryside all over Cambodia. There are also many signs like this. "Visitors Beware This Area is Mined. Stick to Paths or Follow a Local.
			These shots are from Beng Melea - a 900 year old temple 77 km East of Siem Reap. Very cool.
			I just love how the trees are growing out of the buildings.
			A Japanese guy posing with kids.
			I went of a tour with a lot of Japanese people
			Here is the entrance to Angkor.
			Here is the most beautifully decorated temple at Angkor, called Banteay Srei.
			Here is my birthday party. After Siem Reap and Angkor Wat, I took these shots on the way to Penom Penh.
			This girl is selling cooked spiders. A lot of fields in Cambodia look like this. Boys cooling off in the river.
		This is Tuol Sleng in Phnom Penh, Pol Pot's makeshift prison.
			The beautiful Mekong River. Anachronistic Communist era statues.
			These photos are of one the quaintest and lovliest towns I saw in Cambodia - Kampot. This church is on the way to Bokor Hill Station.
			The wide, empty streets of Kampot
			Volleyball courts
			Countryside and river scenes

			I saw the most fascinating bridges. This is Kep, in Southern Cambodia, on the Gulf of Thailand.
			I met this girl from California and we went to Kep together.
			The beautiful countryside of Southern Cambodia.
			I took a boat from Phnom Penh up the Mekong River to Northern Cambodia. Here is one of the docks where people got on and off the boat. It is not very accessible.
			This is the town of Kratie, in Central Cambodia on the Mekong River.
			I loved this bamboo bridge. Apparently, they have to rebuild it every year


			This boy gave me a ride on his boat. Here is a billboard advocating proper health.
			This is a rubber forest.
			This is Stung Treng in Northern Cambodia, also on the Mekong River.
			Pigs on the way to slaughter in Stung Treng, northern Cambodia.
			Kratie is home to grey irrawaddy dolphins .
			Looking out the tower in Kratie. Nice bridge.
			Here is a temple near the site of the dolphins and and some holidayers' viewing platforms.
			This is a honeymooner's house near Ban Lung. The countryside here is very thick with jungle and sparse with people.
			Near Battambang
			Here is a dam and decorations for a wedding party near Battambang. Another picturesque bridge.
			Here is the train station at Battambang. As the train was too crowded, I rode on the roof all the way back to Phnom Penh.
