My Second Week in Siem Reap Cambodia and I Renewed my Visa

[@ebaum1417]

I am moving to Cambodia in November - it’s a lovely place! To extend the regular Visa to a full year, multi-entry, is less than $400

[@nanwithabackpack]

Yes the 6 month is $180 and 12 months $350 off the top of my head. I think the 12 month retirement is $299. I’m definitely going to check it out.

Great adventure

[@nanwithabackpack]

Thanks 🙏 yes it’s been an awesome almost 2 years of travel 😄

[@tomiinindochina9053]

Well done for surviving 2 weeks...you can get a job and extend your experience for the following years even😊

[@nanwithabackpack]

@@tomiinindochina9053 I decided would like to stay longer.

Just subscribed, I am 55 now and have had enough of my eat,sleep, repeat job in the UK and just want to go travelling the world, Good luck 🤞 with your KZbin channel

[@nanwithabackpack]

Oh definitely do it yes you will have days that try your patience and some that even make you cry but they are far out weighed by the truly amazing days and people you meet. I am living on a shoestring budget and at the end of each month it’s sometimes just chicken and rice once a day for food. But I don’t regret a single thing apart from constantly over packing!!!!! Honestly you don’t need much and anything you forget you can buy along the way. Let me know when you have booked your one way ticket 🎫 and if we are ever in the same country maybe we could exchange notes, good luck 🥰

You are so brave trying the snake!🐍 😂. Back then ,I wasn’t very adventurous with the local food so I was a regular at the Hard Rock Cafe..pocket money were all spent on food.😂. It was New Year season and the park and street were filled with decorative lights. So beautiful.

[@nanwithabackpack]

Oh wow! That sounds lovely all lit up. Yes Hard Rock Cafe is very pricey. Lots of local bars and restaurants all along the front. I really love it here.

[@penniedurell6934]

Like everyone is saying, you are so gutsy Sonja 😅I had to look away when you were eating snake 😢xx

[@nanwithabackpack]

😊 it was just chewy and didn’t taste of anything.

@@LamiaEssex hehehe 🤣 yes 👍

[@rachel.please3929]

I’ve never extended my visa. It looks a bit trickier in Cambodia than other places and expensive! You are right about why they sell the little birds but other places like Luang Prabang they discourage people from doing this as the birds often die from shock and it’s cruel. I don’t like to see it.😥

[@rachel.please3929]

Can you do the visa yourself though, without using a visa service?

[@nanwithabackpack]

Honestly it was really easy to do. And the company were great. $50 was ok as they had to send our passports to phnom phem if you travel to the capital yourself it will cost less but you will have travel costs.

[@nanwithabackpack]

I’m not sure about doing it yourself

[@rachel.please3929]

@@nanwithabackpack I’d have been super anxious about having my passport out of sight for so long. Well done for being so calm!😳

[@nanwithabackpack]

@@rachel.please3929 the visa place has so many good reviews and lots of expats use them.

[@Driver2724]

Why you pay $50 for renewal it is $35 I don't understand.???? Can you explain it

[@nanwithabackpack]

I’m in Siem Reap not phnom phen so the visa agent has to send your passport to phnom phen to get it renewed. It takes 7-10 days to do it might be cheaper for the visa there or by doing a border run but then you have travel costs. The 6 month visa is $180 I believe?

[@Driver2724]

@@nanwithabackpack no true they reap you of . What was the name of agent?

[@nanwithabackpack]

@@Driver2724 cam smile services the one with the best rating in Siem Reap used and recommended by most expats.

[@nanwithabackpack]

@@Driver2724 do you know of a better cheaper one as I hope to return and will need another extension for the 3 or 6 visa

@@nanwithabackpack sorry you right smile agent are one of them best. Did in seim reap market sell sheep or goat meat?? I don't know if you know my weird question ha ha. I love sheep or goat meat
