Budget Travelling Tips
Sihanoukville is the main destinations of locals and foreign travellers who want to see and experience the beaches of Cambodia. It’s proximity to Phnom Penh makes it an easy destination to go to. I also noticed that Sihanoukville has a different look compare to Siem Reap and Phnom Penh. I didn’t see any colonial buildings [...]
The options to go to Sihanoukville from Siem Reap is pretty much easy and straightforward. We booked our tickets in our hostel for a direct bus (stop and change bus at Phnom Penh) for only $9. It might be cheaper if you book directly with the bus company’s along Sivatha Road. Alternatively, you could also [...]
We stayed a considerable amount of time in Siem Reap (almost 3 months) trying to buy some time in generating a buffer before moving again to another town. And at the same time, used the time to build more websites that I hope in the future could help generate more travel funds. We did stay [...]
Malacca is one of the most beautiful and photogenic places that I’ve been to in Southeast Asia. We were in Malacca last December 2010 and we enjoyed our stay very much. We went straight to Malacca from Singapore Airport by taking a bus to Johor Bahru and another connecting bus to Malacca. Doing it your [...]

We went to the Angkor Trade Fair held at the Raffles Park a couple of weeks ago to see the products that are being offered by various business owners in Siem Reap. It was indeed a successful and bustling event attended by locals, expats and of course a lot of travellers passing by Siem Reap. [...]
I’m starting a new segment here in FlipNomad to share some memorable and interesting pictures that I’ve taken in my travels. Aside from blogging and travelling, one of my interests also includes photography. But I’m in no way a Pro nor an expert although I do hope that someday I would be. Wat Ram Poeng, [...]
After spending almost a month in Indonesia (almost three weeks in Bali and a week in Yogya), we flew to Singapore and decided to spend the night in Changi Airport and take the bus first thing in the morning to Johor Bahru en route to Malacca. I’ve slept in some airports in my previous trips. [...]
Kuta is one of the famous backpacker’s circuit in the 80′s together with Kathmandu and Khao San. A lot of backpackers pass thru Kuta en route to other destinations in Bali such as Ubud, Lovina and others. After enjoying a couple of decades of popularity among backpackers, Kuta is now a developed beach side property [...]
