Cambodia

I love this place. The language barrier was a little difficult but the people were beautiful anyway. The history of the place is intriguing and just experiencing a seriously different way of life was incredible.

I travelled very, very light on this trip. I took an M3, 35/50/90 lenses and about 35 rolls of film. I did take an Oly 35RC as a backup. I think next time I'll cut the 50 and Oly - rarely used them. The rest of my gear weighed about 8kg and packed into just the bottom of a backpack. I spent a week and a half travelling by motorbike, so it was handy to be able to strap it on the back of the bike quickly and easily.

Nice set! I was in Cambodia a few years ago, and it was a great experience, despite losing my wallet on the second day (not stolen, it fell out of my pocket going to the killing fields). Ankor Wat is incredible.

Great photo of Ta Prohm! Angkor is a really special place.

If you loved Cambodia, you'll really love Laos!
