The main activity of the day was to explore the floating village with a rental rowboat. It was such a surreal experience. The face of surprise in the locals faces each time we docked in their shop or business was priceless. I was sad to leave the village and our beautiful host family.

I stopped midway between Battambang and Phnon Penh, to spend the night at the floating village of Kampong Luong. I had found very little info about it online, so it was really going on an adventure. Kampong Luong is one of the few floating villages left in Cambodia, that moves its location in the Tonle Sap lake based on the season. This village with less than 10,000 inhabitants receives very few tourism, so it was by far one of my most authentic experiences on this trip.
