Wow, after leaving the great country of Vietnam, the next destination was Phnom Penh in Cambodia. Culturally there is a vast difference in the history which shapes the two countries, which is obvious once you cross the boarder. After leaving a communist country with its national pride in the countries history, frantic mopeds and business savvy minds, Cambodia was a small shock in the difference of the people. Cambodia, unlike Vietnam is a democratic nation which seems to shun the past, behave less frantically and still have business savvy yet service orientated individuals. Ok... I am sure to go into this more in later blogs, however to sum up in 30 words or less, the Cambodian people want to help you even if they won't make money off you (a vast difference to Vietnam)
