Our stay at Eden Eco Village was one of the things I was most looking forward to on this trip. Like a lot of other highly-anticipated things, this one didn’t live up to my expectations, and to no fault of Eden. Let’s see, where do I begin. Oh yes, this will do. If you rememberContinue reading “Eden Eco Village: Kampot, Cambodia”

Video: Southeast Asia 2018/19 – Part 1
One year, six months, and thirteen days. That’s how long it’s been since I (Shane) have written a blog post. Why such a long break? Well, mostly I blame it on writing my PhD thesis – it consumed my life for the better part of two years. But I also blame it on us buyingContinue reading “Video: Southeast Asia 2018/19 – Part 1”
Battambang, Cambodia
Battambang was one of my favorite days from our entire trip. Battambang is both a province and a city located about 3 hours west of Siem Reap. Additionally, Battambang city is the third largest city in Cambodia in terms of population size, but this isn’t what necessarily drove me to want to visit. When planningContinue reading “Battambang, Cambodia”
Kompong Khleang, Cambodia
Our time to Siem Reap wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia, the Tonle Sap! Using Siem Reap as home base, we were able to take a half day tour of one of the floating villages located on the Tonle Sap lake. It sounds obvious, but one thingContinue reading “Kompong Khleang, Cambodia”
Tübingen, Germany
Hello all! I’m a little behind on sharing pictures, but Shane and I spent our 2nd anniversary weekend in the cutest German town, Tübingen. Shane ended up coming to Tübingen for some work-related things, so we decided to turn it into a long, celebratory weekend. And it was double celebratory, ya know why? SHANE SUBMITTEDContinue reading “Tübingen, Germany”
Montpellier, France
I have had a serious case of the travel bug lately. It’s holiday season here in the Netherlands (aka: vacation season, for all the Americans in the room). It starts around May, when there are a lot of public holidays, and peaks in August. People at work are literally going on their 2nd round ofContinue reading “Montpellier, France”
A Harry Potter Weekend in London
It’s the blog who lived! All thanks to my good friend Harry and his cursed child. You may (or may not) have noticed that things have been pretty quiet around here. Shane has been feverishly writing and trying to wrap up this Ph.D. thesis. He’s in the phase now that I like to call “editContinue reading “A Harry Potter Weekend in London”
Livigno, Italy
Ahhh, nothing better than alpine wind blowing through your braided pigtails as you whizz down snow-covered mountains with a board strapped to your feet. Especially so, considering we almost didn’t make it on this trip. I’ll explain. We had plans to fly on Saturday around noon. The last few trips we’ve cut it pretty closeContinue reading “Livigno, Italy”
