Entrance to Bayon

Getting around by tuk-tuk
Siem Reap was very eye-opening. My first time in a 3rd world country - first time seeing so much poverty. Even though it was a tourist town, still really hit home how fortunate we are in America. Found it amazing that people are so friendly and happy despite the poverty and tragic history. It was hard to have fun in Siem Reap without feeling exploitative- $1 goes so far to them. A family can be fed on just $4 a day. Lots more pics here
