Cambodia: Solo RIde...

"When a goal matters enough to a person, that person will find a way to accomplish what at first seemed impossible..." - Nido Qubein

(About 10 km from the Cambodian border)

Date: 6 - 16 February 2015
Route: KL – Surat Thani – Samut Songkhran – Koh Kong – Sihanoukville
– Koh Chang – Pattaya – Chumphon – Hatyai - KL
Total distance: 4,060 km

We took time off from our routine life to go for a 11-day solo ride to Cambodia.

On the third day of our journey we crossed the Thailand/Cambodia border at Hat Lek and stayed a night at the border town of Koh Kong. The next day we took a 4-hour bus ride to Sihanoukville, one of the pristine seaside resorts of Cambodia.

After we crossed back to Thailand we rode to the Laem Ngop Pier and took the ferry to the island of Koh Chang situated at the Gulf of Thailand and stayed there for two nights at the White Sand Beach and spent a whole day exploring the island.

Our next destination was Pattaya where we stayed for two night at the Siam Country Club. We visited the floating market, the beach and the Pattaya Bike Week site where we met a lot of bikers from all over the world...

It was a hot tiring journey but so many moments from this experience will stay in my head for a long time. And I will be updating my travel blog once I settled down and rested my tired muscles…
