Siem Reap, Cambodia – the people who went

I’m being a little bit disorganized this time around and will not be starting from the beginning of our trip in this blog post. I’m just going to post all the pics that John Kit took in this one post and will post the tips and so on about traveling to Siem Reap in my next blog. Why? erm, just wanted to focus on people – these are some of the people from Allan & Friends who went for the trip.

ALL PHOTOS TAKEN BY JOHN KIT

Of course, there is the boss and his wife, who paid for the trip

This pic turned out so different – we didn’t realize that it was going to turn out as a classic 70′s posed pic!

Because of that, I decided to post the Black and White to make it look even more 70′s

Of course, since this is my blog, I get to put more pics of ourselves in it

Kuang Fei and Kah Choon, cousins from Bentong who ended up in KL and are TOP NOTCHED entertainers!

Allan & Friends is pretty much a cosy set-up – we believe in working as a family, as much as we can. So, we welcome their friends to join us on the company trip (they paid their own way though)

Pei Win, the one who completes Kah Choon.

John Kit, on the left, with Kah Choon, in their brand new Cambodia t-shirts

Connie, a real blessing to us. Without her, I’d definitely have less time blogging and face-booking

The 2 missing from this pic are John, the photographer, and Andy Yap ….. erm, I don’t where he was when we were taking this pic.

So, more to come another day

Siem Reap, Cambodia, where the people will touch your heart

This year we decided to take Allan & Friends’ to Siem Reap, Cambodia. 

Before I write about the places we went to, and the tips on what to bring, where to go, how to budget and so on, I’d like to share this video with you.

We met so many children who were just roaming the streets selling postcards, bracelets, key chains, books, etc, etc, etc. 

Some of them were so young, in fact, the girl in this video is only 6 years old. She goes to school in the morning and heads off to Angkor Wat after school to sell her merchandise. Its amazing how well she speaks, and how well she sells! 

This girl obviously goes to the School of Hard Knocks and has learnt to survive at such an early age.

Watch out for how she gets 13 cards out of a pack of 10 cards
