I was here as a tourist some 4 years ago and needless to say it has changed dramatically. But then again I am not a tourist or back backer now.
But it has changed nevertheless. A lot of 4 wheel drives that are unable to go beyond 30 and are crying out for a run in the sun. They clog up the roads in the rush hour. And with the help of trafic police kind of back into the road. Seems in the center anyway there are not that many places to go.
There seems to be a lot of flash places around and an incredible super market. Maybe more than one.
Little did I know how much I'd learn in my first two weeks at work in Phnom Penh.
In just a few days, I took part in a training session about mining, wrote captions for photos illustrating animal slaughter for a traditional indigenous wedding ceremony, edited reports dealing with cow banks and resin tapping and wrote a press release about the involvement of the extractive industries at the Indigenous People Day.
In the cafe where I'm presently sitting, the menu offers a glass of gin for $2.50. A chocolate milkshake costs $3.00.
When we were planning our trip to Cambodia, I infinitely researched and browsed websites and asked questions of people who were already living here. How much did it really cost to live in Phnom Penh?
Since others have been asking me the same thing, I thought it may interesting to let you know the price of things and how affordable it is to live, even in this capital city which is considered expensive to locals in other parts of Cambodia.
Pretty sureal to be sitting in this trendy internet cafe in Byron Bay. On the face book chat with A, and all of a sudden I hear a huge storm is blowing trees down all over Phom Penh. Then I texted my son and got a reply from his mother and all was ok.

The Infant's Home care center is now accepting enrollments for the new school
year 2010-2011.
The Infant's Home is one of the first western-run day-care options in Phnom
Penh, and we care for infants and toddlers from 6 months of age until 3 years.
Our approach to childcare is founded on creating a nurturing environment where
babies and toddlers feel safe to explore, develop, and become who they are.
With a convenient location in Toul Kork and extended hours, we try to provide
parents with a quality child-care service that meets parents' needs.
My colleague, Siratha, asked me last week if I could help him write English captions for the photos he was displaying at the Indigenous People's Day event in Siem Reap.
Since I only had 30 minutes before heading out to my language class, I swiftly ran through the photos, asked him about the subjects and wrote brief descriptions for his display board.
Siratha smiled broadly. "I could not have done this without you," he said, as I dashed out of the office.
