Happy Khmer New Year!

Technically it starts on monday. All the shops close down and most everyone goes to their hometown or to the beach or Siem Reip. And that is why we will leave at 4 am tomorrow otherwise the half an hour exit from the city will take 2 hours.

They start to celebrate early with parties and taking it easy. On Friday we went to a New year's party at Asian Outreach. Complete with duck duck goose-like games, karaoke and barbeque!
