Cambodia

heyyyyy double host blogging here on the momentous occasion of Sicily's departure for Cambodia. We are me and me.

First of all, worth reminding our dear Sicily that this is what she's going to eat during her journey:

Along the road north from Phnom Penh (Cambodia's capital city) to Angkor Wat (famous ancient temples), a town called Skuon is famous for edible spiders. These spiders look similar to furry North American tarantulas. There are road-side street vendors with large woks filled with oil for deep-frying the crispy critters. The spiders are breed in holes in the ground near the town.

Then this other interesting fact about zombie-malaria:

There has been a small outbreak of “zombism” in a small town near the border of Laos in North-Eastern Cambodia. The culprit was discovered to be mosquitoes native to that region carrying a new strain of Malaria which thus far has a 100 percent mortality rate and kills victims in fewer than 2 days. After death, this parasite is able to restart the heart of its victim for up to two hours after the initial demise of the person where the individual behaves in extremely violent ways from what is believed to be a combination of brain damage and a chemical released into blood during “resurrection.”

Also worth reminding the movies she might be lucky enough to see on a romantic night out:


Luckily it's subtitled.

Triple fisting here... Lady V on the decks. One sentence of advice:

You can never have too many belts, bags or shoes.

Yah.
