Crawler to Climber

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

25 JAN 12                
Another 3 months and a whole lot of changes. The chase begins as Aya stops sitting around and begins crawling everywhere. As January comes to an end and Aya is climbing up on everything, the inevitable first steps and the likely end of our sanity draws ever nearer. -steve-... READ MORE...

Dear Friends, Trends come and go. At their climax, culture dictates we must embrace them in order to climb the social ladder. We expats often think that we are at the forefront of trend-setting but this time our Cambodian brothers and sisters are leaving us in the dust in this global phenomenon. So, let this be the push that gets us out of Lucky Supermarket an... READ MORE...

With a full week off for Christmas, we just couldn't help ourselves. We had to visit what Cambodians call Koh Tral, an island off the coast of Cambodia that actually belongs to Vietnam. From the beach in Kep (one of our most favourite spots in the Kingdom), you can see Phu Quoc (it's Vietnamese name) rising like a giant out of the sea. This is a sore spo... READ MORE...

We have to thank Eleanor Roosevelt for our family mantra over the past few months. 'Do the thing you think you cannot do.' Because, as we've found out since Aya was born, having a baby changes everything. It is rewarding, definitely. But it's definitely more challenging and chaotic and frustrating at times. We've been on a huge learnin... READ MORE...
