That restaurant is special mate, In Asia I’ve never spent so much on a meal but I had to show something special about Cambodia. It was worth it, I can only do that with the support of my community like you. Thank you so much Robert.
Nice vlog rich,very enjoyable, i personally don't see anything wrong with the camera work,love your honesty, having lived in Cambodia for 3 years, i know what you mean about dual pricing. Looking forward to the adventure in Vietnam.
Thanks Anthony, I think he just has a condition that means he can’t catch up quickly when I’m moving around fast mate. Unfortunately that’s raw vlogging.
Very lucky Baz, when I found it there was a load of kids behind me as well. They’d of found it for sure, Vietnam is class. Cheaper than chips mate.🇻🇳👌🏻
I missed this one when I was away just been looking back to check you know I watch all your vlogs. And you were lucky to get your phone back I’m glad you did. It was an emotional watch when you talked about your accident when you were knocked over and Glastonbury I remember it clearly ❤ Love the views at the national park and love your honesty about being over priced and also the litter what a day you had you must have been exhausted 😊
Thank June, I know you watch them all. My biggest fan😊, I was very lucky with my phone. It was a wake up call. I don’t like to talk to much about my past on the channel, it all sounds a bit boo hoo crack on ha. That was an emotional day though my heart was going like the clappers🤣
Yep, it's definitely one for the team with those spots. That crab meal looked devine! Glad you got your phone back too. How was the scooter hire when you brought the bike back with all the mud?
Thanks Greg, the crab amok was amazing I can still taste it. I was so lucky with my phone, it give me a wake up call. The motorbike was fine, I rented it from the hotel I was staying at. When I got back I explained what happened and asked them if I could borrow a hose pipe, I washed it down and my trainers.
I know where ill be having my crab by the water when in Kep. And I also know where to go if I want to have the worst meal in cambodia 😂 I'm honestly curious how bad it is. When it comes to the foreigner tax, I hate that, but I get it as well. It isn't fair either way actually becauae they earn much less but at the same time, at least add %10 or %15 not double or triple. As far as the trash issue, any government whether black or white needs to make that a priority. Good on you for bringing it up. There's nice things and bad things in every country around the world.
There is mate, I’ll be honest I don’t get it at all. If anybody visited the UK would you be happy paying anything on top? Fact is their cost of buying the food/taxes/overheads and the cost of living is much much less. To be fair they don’t pay for most of them. So I think It should be even. In Thailand you don’t get this because they know tourism are vital to their way of life and that’s why the country is head and shoulders economy wise in front of Cambodia. They don’t use us as a cash cow. If you look at Thailand right now it’s just hit high season and it’s jam packed with tourists. Then look at Kep beach. All locals and next to no tourists, it’s a big indicator.
Really enjoying your Cambodian vlogs , yes you're right, if they could sort out the rubbish situation and fix some of the roads they would have a lot more tourists.
Definitely Paul, all I’ve heard from the locals is it’s very quiet. I tell them it’s because you use your streets like a tip and you milk tourists like they’re a cash cow. There attitude towards their country and the people that visit needs to change very fast. Word spreads and before they know it the whole country will be a ghost town.
I'm in kampot right now and it is a little bit quiet. I think it's a lot to do with the road to Sihanouk ville, it's an absolute disgrace , almost impassable, it's taking 4 hours to reach the main highway, the PP to Sihanouk road, it's crazy , they said it would be fixed in November but nothings happened yet.... As for the rip offs , we just have to learn to ask the price before we buy . Most can speak English but if you can ask in Khmer you will usually get a good price. T'lai porn man ? Something like that 😊
You can build all the resorts you want, but if tourists don't see value for money and time, they won't be back and they will tell others. Cheap scams, lousy food and muddy roads put people off spending their tourist dollars there.
That’s right unfortunately mate, I seen vids of Thailand today and it’s absolutely rammed. Then look at Kep and it’s 95% locals, that’s the difference. They know how important tourism/infrastructure is to their countries economy and that shines through.
@@ParkinsonRaw It takes very little training,brings in hard currency, and employs a lot of people . I saw Phuket and Koh Samui in the early 80's. Each time I came back , along came organized crime and pollution . Bangkok mafia and the fishing /pirate families cleared out all the local families.
@@pepelemoko01 it’s horrible to see mate, there doing it now in Khlong Toei Bangkok to make way for high rise apartments. I love that area, people call it the biggest slum in Thailand but I think it’s just traditional Thai. I’ve had loads of great days and nights there.
@@ParkinsonRaw One minute they are talking about moving Bangkok because of the floods, the next clearing out the poor people to make the next Singapore.
Great news about the phone. Try back up any important bits. I email files to myself to keep them safe. I thought I lost my wallet on last day in BKK. Had £500 in it. Thankfully I remembered I hid it down my front. Worst 10 mins of my life 😁
I’ll be honest mate I have no idea, being a budget traveller I keep away. The guys I met there with girlfriend’s seemed really happy so that’s a good indicator.
Tough start but finished on a high , the roads alone would stop me going to cambodia, along with the iffy food and prices , plus the rubbish and burning i'll give it a swerve , or watch the rose tinted you tubers videos and believe in their hype,. phone loss could have been catastrophic , how lucky were you to find it in one piece , do you have i cloud ?, i almost lost my passport once at thailand mayanmar border, same as you retraced my steps and found it down the side of the seat in the car , it slipped out of my pocket as i exited car and thankfully stayed just inside the sill of the car, i know how you must have felt,.3 things to be careful with ,passport/phone/wallet,. lesson learnt there richy,. upward and onward to vietnam, looking forward to the mayhem after the relative calm of cambodia , thailand is going to seem like paradise after camvietlao !,...cheers,.
Mike I can’t begin to tell you how much of a nightmare that would have being. I do have I cloud but verifications etc and all of my work stuff etc would have being a killer. Thanks mate I was very lucky, loads of kids 100 yards behind me would of found it for sure
wow thanks for sharing the stories about the teeth and stabbing. they could probly fit you up with some nice prostetics for a nice price in thailand, but your channel would lose some of its 'richness'!
Yes unfortunately mate dentistry isn’t an option. I’ve tried a lot of things and they’ve always been extremely uncomfortable. I’m happy the way I am now.
Lost a Phone it's- not realy good but, sometime is give a more motivation to move - only one crab- it's lost connection between google account and your telephone system its only now on your laptop my tips about security/

@@JuneOyston aww bless you June, thanks. I’m a tough old boot don’t you worry I can handle it😊
The good thing about Thailand is that you pay the same price as the locals, and the food is much better.
The food in Thailand is awesome mate, that said the crab amok i had in kep was amazing.
go on richy la!more food please!
Thanks mate, I will be hopefully mate. I’ll be honest they haven’t done well in the past but I’ll get the odd ones in.
Yep, it's definitely one for the team with those spots. That crab meal looked devine!
Glad you got your phone back too.

@@paulhumphries4023 the roads are horrendous mate, I got the train for that reason. Enjoy Kampot Paul, i loved it there.
Glad you got your phone back mate. Oh yes they’ll try and rip you off if they can get. 🙄🙏
Definitely Wayne, they need a serious attitude change to waste and tourists or this country will go south very quickly mate.
one of the reasons i wont go yet is due to the waste situation.
It’s shocking, they need educating badly

back that iphone up Rich......soul destroying loosing work 😩
I have now mate, give me a shock that🤣
What do you think of the Cambodian women so far? Do you think that they would make good longterm girlfriend material?
I’ll be honest mate I have no idea, being a budget traveller I keep away. The guys I met there with girlfriend’s seemed really happy so that’s a good indicator.

They have any dentist there?
Yeah loads, cheap too.
wow thanks for sharing the stories about the teeth and stabbing. they could probly fit you up with some nice prostetics for a nice price in thailand, but your channel would lose some of its 'richness'!
Yes unfortunately mate dentistry isn’t an option. I’ve tried a lot of things and they’ve always been extremely uncomfortable. I’m happy the way I am now.
Is it wheat?ffs its SEAsia
Am I supposed to know these things? I’m asking for information mate. This was a long time ago👍🏻
That's rice not wheat and there's no water in the salt fields. When it's full of water it's nice.
Thanks i've been filled in on the rice. The salt fields i can only say it as i see it.
Lost a Phone it's- not realy good but, sometime is give a more motivation to move - only one crab- it's lost connection between google account and your telephone system its only now on your laptop my tips about security/
