Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Today was a grim day, as I visited the prison and torture center, and later the killing fields of the Khmer Rouge, the dictatorship that ruled and terrorized Cambodia for 4 years. "Never will we forget the crimes committed during the Democratic Kampuchea Regime" reads the message at the memorial of the genocide that took place between 1975 and 1979. These visits triggered a lot of emotions, but a constant thought lingered: why had I never learned about this?

Phnom Penh, Cambodia

I recently learned basic counting in Khmer (1 to 10, 100, 1000). It's crazy how that tiny effort can completely change your interactions with the locals. They love it! Asking prices and bargaining went from being a struggle to a lot of laughs (mostly from their side). Today I walked around Phnom Penh, exploring the busy Central Market and the majestic Royal Palace.
