In this video, I visit several villages to the west of Siem Reap town in the picturesque Cambodian countryside. See village life off the beaten track – you won’t find any tourists in these places! The two sangkats visited are Sra Nge and Krabei Riel. It’s the rainy season, so there is a lot of water around, but the upside is that it’s lovely and green.

  1. Another great video Claire thank you. Not many Aussies or Poms live there.
    Don’t forget I will be in Siem Reap on Tuesday 1st of November, and I will be staying at the Angkor Panoramic Boutique Hotel that’s a mouthful.
    If you get the chance pop in and say hello.
    Pommie Joe.

  2. Hi Jeremy & Claire 😊, such a fun video , one doesn't have to travel far in the kingdom to experience village life 🛵, love all the big dogs you captured along the roads 🤣, and what would life be without a furry welcoming 🐕, would have loved to see this on a sunny day 🌞, thanks for the fun get together the other night 🙏, it was so nice to finally meet Marc & Kinal 😊, looking forward to your next adventure , take care , have fun , Peace

  3. Hi. Thanks for another good video. Its so green and fresh everywhere, nice to see. I have seen the rural life in Chiang Mai and in Sisaket Thailand but never in Cambodia. Take care!

  4. Thanks for sharing. Love these adventure rides discovering new location and interesting places 👍😊❤ btw what do you or Jeremy do when it's rainy outside? Workout at a gym or just chilling at coffee shop?
    Love the peaceful vibe in Siem Reap 👍❤🍰☕
