I posted from thailand right before leaving, so it might seem like i am moving light speed, but i'm not.
cambodia is incredible; but today I saw the Killing Fields where Pol Pot murdered so many people only a few years ago. i don't know how familiar ya'll are with recent cambodian history, but i read about this genocide and wanted to see where it happened. i cried.
besides that though, the temples are phenomenol. i can't believe the incredible beauty in each of them, and how they all affect me. It is strange that they look the same from afar; like a pile of rocks. but when you get up close, their detail and intricate architecture becomes visible. Amazing.
between Thailand and Cambodia, I would choose Cambodia. The people are desperately poor, but also serene and gentle. I am looking forward to Viet Nam. Í'll write ya'll from there...
