Hey thanks! Seems like a lot of construction is common across a lot of the region, great news for the locals. I'm thinking Da Nang will make a good base as I check other places out. I live in Albuquerque right now, I'm pretty sure ... Read More

Hi all, I have been trying, in vain, to find out where I will be able to purchase essential prescribed medication in Phnom Penh (and have even contacted the Canadian embassy, but have not received a reply as of yet - insert eye roll emoji). I ...

Hi sorry to pile on, is there a place to check online? I take 200 mg of lamatrogine, 100 mg keppra and 30 mg propranolol daily. Didn't think about it but if my meds run hundreds a month might be a deal breaker for me. They're around $80 a ... Read More


Service Dog in Cambodia by bigsquirrel
Hi all, I've got some things that I'm only now considering as I read your forum, I did my research about bring my dog to Cambodia. Seems pretty simpler and simpler than any other country I've looked into so far. I understand finding ...

It's funny reading through here all the things I haven't thought about. I've been pretty much a permanent bachelor and a bit of a whore. That being said, I don't particularly expect that to change although it's not really a ... Read More

Can I get a work permit in Cambodia if I have hepatitis B? by mochiron
Hi, all, I am planning to work in Cambodia. I am wondering is I will be able to get a work permit in Cambodia if I have hepatitis B? any reply will be appreciated!

Hello Everyone, I'll be leaving the US before August to start living overseas. I'm trying to narrow my options down to a few places I might live in for a month or so before I make up my mind. I've considered and visited or rejected ... Read More
