My expat journey
Phnom Penh, Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Enjoyed 4 days in Phnom Pen and now been in siem Reap for 8 days. Good to explore the city and enjoy Cambodian food, culture and hosptality. We will spend some more time here and return to Phnom Pen.
I like how friendly and smiling the people are even though some of them probably have it hard.
The dust takes some getting used to especially in Siem Reap!
The mosquitoes.........they love me!!
The poverty is hard to take in, especially with children.

Loved the weather, sunsets and living just 15 minutes form one of the biggest tourist destinations in the world. Having annual tickets to all the Disney Parks was lovely, proving you are never too old for Disney! We also had a wonderful coastline within an hour or so, on the East and West Coast. We wer lucky to see many shuttle launches from the Space Coast before the program finished.

I was born in south Wales and lived there, moving 6 times locally, until I moved to Florida in 2008. I ran my own children's designer wear stores and nursery goods for many years. I managed and insurance brokers, then a vocational training center run by Cardiff Chamber of Commerce. I had several positions within the chamber including Regional Business Development Manager. During my last few years I worked for them on a consultancy basis working on a Welsh Assembly government contract to help businesses to grow and help them with tenders via events, workshops, meet h buyer, speed networking etc.

The countryside is beautiful, lush green fields, mountains and beautiful beaches that I was always lucky enough to live within 30 minutes of. Lots of places to visit in our country, nice pub restaurants with good food and wine! Loved to visit London. People are very friendly.
