Ayy someone else on here in cambodia??
I was over there for 3 weeks couple months ago. I left because its too hot.
Be careful on the roads, I saw so many guys drop bikes in intersections, with an unhelmeted child in his lap, and one time pulled a guy from a truck wreck, no idea if he survived. My friend came across a fatal accident in his bus too.
Thats wild. Ive got the motorcycle license for over 125cc ive only seen 3 accidents. All minor though. Riding here is a completely different game than riding in the US. Ill admit its a little fun.
Yeah no I’ll take a bike in SEA over a car in the US any day. I have never once seen road rage.
I did have a bunch of minor accidents when I first started, learning stuff like “green does not mean you’re safe”, “chickens are suicidal bastards”, and “do not move behind a heavy truck on an incline at a red, it might be driven by a 14 year old who doesn’t know to put the ebrake on”.

Decided to do something productive with my gap year, so I came to teach English in rural Cambodia.

Filling your gap in Cambodia, eh?

what’s to work out? just provide a phone number and city as your address, and one day someone will call you and mutter something unintelligable and you say “TELEGRAM… TELEGRAM” and then they telegram you to ask where you are and you send your location and then they show up with your grand piano on the back of their moto and ask for a mystery extra delivery fee.
