'A blueprint for me to print, a map for me to get back, a guide for my eyes not to lose scent!'

V's Cambodian UBL: 'A blueprint for me to print, a map for me to get back, a guide for my eyes not to lose scent!'
We know she's planning to go there the 4th time!

Upon landing at Siem Reap at around 19:30, we headed straight to check in at our resort which was conveniently nestled outside the city. Quite sadly, the city center is a bustling place and very touristy! Palm Village is about 10 minutes away from the city by car and 20 minutes by tuk-tuk.

Our cottage, C5


The sit out


Our cottage was done up completely in wood and cane. Ah, cane! I wonder how Nih would feel if he ever went there :P but to me, it was absolutely earthy and cosy!

Such a self-contained resort! The entire place had a personal touch about it, right from the people to the smallest detail.

The Pool and our everyday Breakfast Area, at Sunrise


Every morning we would feast on delicious pancakes, a really divine bowl of soup, baguettes, fruits and Khmer tea. We would then rush off to see the ruins, mostly on a tuk-tuk.

One of the reasons why I named my blog such, just one!



Another Pool View, one from our breakfast spot!
