CAMBODIA -- As much as I hated to leave the home away from home that was Koh Chang, Thailand, I finally made it to Cambodia. The transport was long, hot and exhausting -- about 11 hours -- but as we walked over the border bridge, I did not even care.
I'm in Cambodia.
As I write, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.

First impressions:
I'll be honest. I was a little shell-shocked when we first arrived to Siem Reap.

Since it was dark, I lost some of my confidence in traveling alone. Also, I had gotten so used to the simple island life, the jolt back to reality was hitting me.
