Traveling Cambodia: Phnom Penh

[@Cascade5012]

For my generation these names and places held a different meaning. I shutter when I hear them. Thank you for revealing a change that is refreshing! What a gift you both are. Be safe and God Bless.

[@century153]

It's so amazing how the world has changed -- I can't seem to get the Vietnam war out of my head whenever I hear names like Cambodia, Vietnam, Mekong River, Phnom Penh etc. I want to erase it all -- it looks like such a wonderful experience. I believe you guys will be forever changed after this summer. God bless and TFS!

[@MarisaJensen]

I'm LOVING these videos. I've been on a personal Dave up for my Iceland, Thailand, and Europe trip. I'm drooling over your trip and how simple you guys are packing. Honestly, wishing you and Michael safe travels, a good time, and safe return. Hugs!

[@jamessilentddjelal7748]

I lived there for 2 years (2013 2015) and am now back in the UK. This video just sealed it for me..... I AM GOING BACK!!!!!

[@cotyalvarado77]

Thank you again Christine and Michael!! I look forward everyday for a new video!!!! Blessings my friends and safe travels.

[@charchui]

thank you so much for taking us with you.... no words can describe how generous this is as it cannot be easy to find places to upload, spend time editing while you're on the go. Sending you some wonderful thoughts from Canada. Can't wait to "travel" more with you guys.

[@sloanewoodford7567]

WoW, @ 3:03 seeing ice for drinks dragged across the wide floor is something else!

[@TheRachelLew]

Thank you for taking the time to record and upload these videos! Such amazing experiences! Hope you both are staying safe and enjoying your travels. :)

[@ivechang6720]

Thank you so much. These are places I'll never see in person it is a wonderful gift. Actually cried there a bit. You both are so generous and sweet, bless you.

[@Badfingerbabe777]

[@Stephanie_LaFever]

These videos are great Christine. So ready for you to be home and getting into your new place so we can watch the organizing process take place. I am so out of the organizing mood. Need a jump start! Stay safe! Lots of love from the main land!

[@qnt1017]

Loving your travel vlogs, Christine! I'm super excited and can't wait to see your next video when you and Michael are in Vietnam. Pretty sure so much have changed there since i left 20 years ago. Have fun, be safe and thank you for sharing your journey with us.

[@notyetanotheralias]

loved the flowers! you both look so lovely, well-rested and relaxed. i think that your decision to declutter in general has lifted a burden off your shoulders. i love the new adventures! thank you for taking us with you.

[@RedAngel026]

Luv watching ur travelogues!!!! Safe travels & thank you for taking the time to share!!!

[@inacheng625]

omg. you visited my home country. awesome. i am so obsessed with your channel. can't believe you came to cambodia. i wanna meet u. but currently i am studying for my uni in australia.

[@SMARTERBEAUTY]

First comment!! Loving your travel videos sweety! Have a safe trip! You too look like your having a blast :)

[@mahadragon]

Many speak English in Cambodia. I had some of my best conversations ever there in 2011. They are very curious about Americans.

[@gmadiva]

I've been enjoying your video travelogue since the beginning and don't know why I haven't commented more. Just wanted to say that you've done such a great job, and the two of you are just adorable. Safe travels. Looks like you are truly enjoying yourselves. Good for you!

[@trixiegirlism]

I'm impressed at how seemingly effortlessly you're making your way from city to city. Heck, I get lost in my own town!

[@superviewer88]

Actually, the ice block is dragged to the market to be crushed and used as bedding to fish and meats. Also, blocks are usually rinsed a few times before they are crushed. In many SE Asian nations, seafood and meats are sold in their fresh or unfrozen state, so ice beds are used to keep them stay fresh. But these ice are not used in food. Restaurants serve ice from their own freezers. If you got sick from the ice coffee, it's more likely due to a bacterial strain which you are not used to.

[@MyLittlePinkCottage]

Loving these videos. You are both. So sweet with everyone you come across. Loved Michael sliding with the kids in one of your previous videos. Eww, the blocks of ice...

[@nataliedrapeau3859]

Awesome to watch you travel through South East Asia. You two seem to be having such a good time. Enjoying watching your so well put together videos. Beautiful job. Safe journey, wish you all the best!!

[@MikesHDVideos]

Other then your flights from/return home, did you book your flights within South East Asia before you left home or did you book them along the way? Thanks

[@disneychick8891]

thank you both for taking the time to share and upload this videos, you two are so humble and one of my favorite couples on KZbin. You make travel look so easy, l cannot wait to see your adventures in India, wow! This is a trip of a life time, you look so pretty as well, l truly hope you get a job with the Travel network or agency, you did a really great job describing places and showing up how to go from one end to the other. BraVo!

[@emilyrebekah1]

Thanks for keeping the videos coming, I love following your adventure!

[@misskimberly5]

i tell my friends about what you're doing. i think it's really amazing & i love love love that you're taking your viewers along.

[@nualal7406]

We just got to Cambodia, this makes me so excited to explore!

[@Tonib613]

I was wondering did either one of you guys ever get sick on the trip if so were you prepared?? That is one thing i would be scared about is the health care or food poisoning thanks for sharing the travels toni

[@stevetruong71]

At the end of the video u mention heading to Vietnam. Do u have video on that?

[@olivam.1751]

in love with your traveling videos keep them coming and thank you for sharing

[@Mirlearxoxo]

My parents were born and raised in Cambodia! I've been there twice and i loved it! :) going there again next year :)

[@zcarenow]

did you visit any historical landmarks?

[@lucerodiaz7185]

Christine, thank you and Steve for sharing this awesome vacation, each day I'm looking for a new video from you, I will never be able to go to Thailand but with you sharing your vacation videos I feel like I'm also there vacationing with you guys, I can't wait to see the videos from India...Thank you again!

[@443msm]

Thanks again for sharing! I really look forward to your updates. Take care!

[@scottyseeks]

I have been living in cambodia for 7 years and have never gotten sick. I feel for you. When you saw the ice drag across the ground, there is a difference. There is drink-ice and there is chilled-ice. Unfortunately for you, you assumed both are the same. Good call but you are wrong

[@andrewsmith3613]

+Scotty Davis 7 years mate? That is mental.

[@H3art5]

LOL! don't worry about the ice. There are two different type of ice that Cambodians use, one to cool stuff for cooler etc.. (cheaper, however lower class still use it for drinks etc), the other one is call "safety ice" that one is safe to put in your drink. And those two type of ice can be easily identified, the "unsafe" one are usually not in any particular shape and usually you can see some particles inside the ice itself, the "safe" ice are usually in a shape of a cylinder and it's should be crystal clear.

[@Oggiwara1]

Correct! The cylindric ice cubes is the safe to drink one. It's the same in Laos and Thailand also. And I never got sick when I was in Cambodia for 1 month. And I used a lot of ice in my beverages.

[@bvdvoort638]

exactly! dont worrie about the ice, as long as there is a little hole in your cubes. if you buy drinks at a very veryyyy local restaurant located at some farm next to a rice field, then you might have to check if your ice isent chunky (because sometimes they cut it of from those large blocks indeed.

[@khmerminnesota3952]

Hi, What program did you use to make a flight path from Siem Reap to Sihanoukville? Really appreciate your response. Thanks,

[@ShesInLosAngeles]

To think that my husband took a swift boat up the Mekong in 1969. Thank you for pointing out the river. Safe travels.

[@LIsaMarieDiRado]

I love traveling with you guys via my iPad !! Thank You both looking forwars to seeing Vietnam! God bless and be safe.

[@cristinaibarra9538]

christine love the videos keep them coming i check every day for my next exotic trip i take with u guys thanks and please take care

[@stephsutton2649]

What was the hotel called? Thanks

[@JimmyYuma7]

Good stuff! Thanks for sharing, be safe out there and keep the vids comin!

[@1Jenmom]

I love these videos! You guys are so brave!

[@MrsSoapPeddlersHomestead]

you guys make my evening...whole family watching!

[@LaPolymita]

Very informative video(s) you have posted. I'm planning a trip there ... Could you please tell me the name of the hotel you stayed at? (could not understand name from video) Thanks!

[@BLOWGUNS]

Thankyou so much your video will be a great help on my visit.

[@iluv2worship]

Hi! Not Christine. ☺She does have a vid explaining "what" they each packed in their backpack. It's at the very beginning of her trip before she left HI. I'm thinking she was in the hotel the night before their plane left. HTH ☺

[@BoudoirBoutiqueNC]

We may go to Cambodia next year. Did you hear French at all? I want to speak to the natives, do you suggest Khmer?

[@ResanChea]

U mean do Cambodian speak French much ? They don't but lots of people use english

[@vaanLuvU]

I ask my cousin if anyone spoke French in cambo apparently not even though it's suppose to be our secondary language?

[@ResanChea]

***** don't talk shit about my country

[@ResanChea]

***** fuck you and you country who care about you.... Fuck

[@virakthong8022]

Van Sem There are some people still speak French but it's easier if you speak English.

[@morgan420chick]

I love the fact you guys chose such a different vacation spot, My idea of a perfect getaway would be Hawaii, but you both live there already so it's interesting to see where a person from a tropical paradise would travel on vacation.

[@joelhayes7716]

Great video! I love what you guys are doing!

[@davidgrassfield]

That's an awesome video. Loved it. Thank you for the upload.

[@iluv2worship]

Hi Christine.. keep these great travel vids coming~ I'm enjoying each and everyone. ☺ I was wondering how your choosing safe "food" for every meal in the different cities??

[@yunaville]

You guys are having my dream vacation. Will be following in your footsteps soon

[@TamSumner]

I never though of traveling to some if the places you have vlogged about.. But my husband & I definitely want to check it out! I would die to get my hands on that makeup you purchased!! I am amazed by Asian beauty products! Wishing you safe travels!

[@NudgingCharlie13]

Thank you again for another interesting video. I am amazed at the way they drive in the city. How is it there were no wrecks?

[@Dwightinho56]

You are Good at Vlogging as you go! So anxious for you seeing all the crazy TukTuk driving. Here in Scandinavia insurance companies do not cover accidents in those... Be careful now, and a continous wonderful experience!

[@Winslick]

How long did you stay in Cambodia? - Kayla. I am going there as a side trip after Thailand in September and like to get an idea of how many days is nice for a taste of it.

[@RealSpaceHobo]

just love the quality of these vids - the best I've seen so far........tnx....:-)

[@mbarda]

Love your videos. Keep them coming!

[@catwildndn]

Another awesome video..... I wish I was in your backpack traveling with you guys....

[@jlong232]

Thanks for the video. I can not wait to move back to Cambodia!!!!!

[@10ambeer58]

Hello from Phnom Penh! Those were the days! Sihanoukville was great back then...different world now :(

[@user-hk7rw9li5c]

Hi Christine! I love your videos, you have inspired me to go vegan. Can't wait for your next video. I am Canadian-born Vietnamese and went back to Vietnam for the first time with my mother about 5 years ago. It was quite a culture shock for me but I loved (and hated some parts) it. We stayed for a month and explored what we could. It was super hot and humid, and I only got a minor stomach ache even though we were very careful. I looooved the fresh tropical fruits!

[@mallie35]

G'Day guys, love your vlogs! Can you please tell me what sort of camera (make/model) you use?

[@yothisTiVi]

thats where im from.. after watching this really make me miss my hometown, i havent been back 3 years already

[@BallieBallBunny]

I hope both of you are doing OK! It has been awhile! Looking forward to see your next video!

[@bel250]

Hi Christine, missing your travel updates....hope all is well. Stay safe and enjoy...

[@MakeupMornings]

I love your vlogs! I really want to go out and travel now as well!!

[@Pemyquid]

Have you sampled mangosteen yet? I am so curious to know what they taste like, since we can't get them in the US. Loving the videos! You two both look so relaxed!

[@kvanly]

I believe that the ice blocks are for the fish vendors. They keep the fish fresh.

[@mszxswty]

I'm Cambodian, but I live in america. I was born here as well but Cambodia is my parents were born :) good to see u traveling :)

[@skylilly1]

Looks amazing! I would love all the market shopping!

[@stephanieklein]

I hope you get to go to SaPa in Vietnam, visiting Hill Tribes. That's what I want to do most. That and Burma, which is supposedly what Vietnam was 20 years ago. I know Burma isn't in your plans, but it should be!

[@lillybudge6418]

Amazing....thanks for taking us along with you :)

[@farrahmayleigh]

Thank u for sharing, what a adventure for me to see from my bed in Texas. Safe journeys

[@bel250]

I think Christine and Michael should go to the Philippines also. So many islands there to go to, and they probably will enjoy there as well...

[@MrGetonyourbike]

great video many thanks for making and posting to youtube

[@renny1608]

This is such a nice experience traveling to several countries at the time.....wish I had the same will to do that!!!

[@sandra666]

I love these videos. Are there no traffic lights on the streets? I haven't seen any in the videos. Have fun guys.

[@melser77]

This tour is my dream, you are very lucky, and thanks for sharing !

[@kkrr00nnicc420]

ty for posting. I need to visit my ancestral homeland one of these days.

[@tbtoro1]

Hi Mike and Christie, Wow great adventure. I've been following you on your journey. I can't wait to sit down and talk story when you get home on Maui. Still a possibility I'll be in PI late August maybe we could meet up. I'll show you the Palawan area. Your spot here at he swap meet work's :) Take care

[@hamburgervisal]

Cambodia is an amazing place to go and explore. Its cheap and very gorgeous. People r amzing and not to mention abt angkor wat. The best

[@vallove4life]

Hope the trip is going well and that you guys are alright.

[@melbellolo8885]

Did u move over there?? Miss your tutorials..

[@KampucheaKing]

Thanks for visiting my home land

[@nhemchanreasmey]

how much do you spent in cambodia?

[@Luban4ik1]

It feels very nice there, in Cambodia - peaceful, quiet place, the people seem very friendly ;) Thanks for sharing =) & why didn't you go to see some beaches there? Are they good in this country?

[@cupacoffeemate]

Wishing that you're safe and well....missing your vlogs.

[@SueAz09]

I'd be scared to death in traffic. No way would I attempt driving in that chaos. So want to travel there. Thanks for showing your travels!

[@sparklefarter]

Beautiful. :) surprised you only stopped by in Cambodia for a short time. When you passed by the Mekong river, all I thought about was that NARS eyeshadow and was like oh so that's where that place is. Haha. :P NARS really likes to use places to name their items. I love all the fruits in Asia. :3

[@RMayA46]

I love stockpiling your videos until i have a little collection and then just sitting down and having a marathon! I love travelling but india and alot of the area youre visiting has never really been on my radar and I'm not too sure I'd travel there, but I love getting to experience this with you :)

[@BrittanyPowell]

Absolutely LOVE watching your travel videos. Why do you and your hubby travel so often? Just for fun?

[@hollydolly088]

how do you carry ALLL your stuff in one backpack.. plz do a video on that!

[@bvdvoort638]

If you're in cambodia you should also try the night bus or the hotel bus. :D lovely. THe hotel bus offers you small 2 person matresses with a tv screen above you. you get on at around 10pm, and arrive 7am in the morning. And you didnt waste time :P

[@mayrahernandez6505]

yup it sure is a melow sort of caous! Love the Videos keep them coming.

[@freemanchannel5540]

Nice video thanks for sharing ! my homeland.
