A Kenyan in Cambodia

Hi lovelies, hope you are doing well. Thank you for all the emails at krazykenyan@yahoo.com to check up on me and to talk about my last  post . Thanks for all the kind words, it warms my heart :) Oh btw who watched the Nigeria vs Argentina match yesterday? Whoooa my friend organised a group of Africans-mostly  Nigerians to go to Score Bar to watch it live, and again I had so much fun watching it!! Although they lost 2:3, they played quite well. It was an awesome night :) Today I want to do a quick catch up post about when I went to Singapore for a weekend last year. It will be short but picture heavy :) I find Singapore a very interesting country. It is quite small, one of the smallest countries in the world, and I also find the fact that it went from being a third world country to a first in literally about 50 years quite mind boggling! Singapore is very modern, I knew this before I went, but I was not prepared for what I saw. The first thing you notice is the airport. Changi ai

Hey lovelies, so yeah, remember when I said I'll be writing a series titled 'Nights out in Phnom Penh' just to give an idea of what the expat night life in PP is like? Yeah well last night my friends and I had a not so awesome night out. I really wish this post was about the awesome night out I had last Saturday  (14th June), my friends and I went bar hopping before ending up at CodeREd Nightclub where the  Stanton Warriors  were playing that night- Epic night by the way.                                                                    I really wish this post was about last Wednesday (18th June) where I attended an event called Laughing Out Loud, at the same venue- CodeREd-which was organised by my Nigerian friend and basically brought a lot of Africans and other expats (but mostly black Africans) together for a night of performances, music and dance followed by some serious dancing to African beats on the dance floor after the event.                          

Helloooo lovelies! So the World Cup is onnn!! Woohooo. What an amazing time to be patriotic, watch games with friends over some beers and generally have lots of fun while rooting for your favorite teams, yeah? Well unfortunately it is also a time where people get to be super racist and xenophobic and my friend wrote about it  here . It's a short but very good read, so click on that link :) On Monday I went to Nerd Night- which is an amazing event where 3-4 people get to talk about something they are nerdy or passionate about. These people use power-point slides and are allowed 20 seconds per slide for 20 slides. The event is held once every two weeks on a different location each time, and anyone can do a presentation, all you need to do is contact the organizers by email or through their facebook page .This week Nerd Night was held at  Score Bar  which is basically one of the best sports bar in Phnom Penh which is open 24 hours and is playing all the World Cup matches live.

Hi lovelies, this morning I woke up early and in such a good mood (I love it when that happens). Since I've been on holiday, I've still been waking up early as usual but lately my body is starting to realize that we actually don't need to be anywhere..lol So I have enjoyed a few late mornings, well except today. So anyway, after the usual going through my phone with one eye open (y'all do that too!!!) I got up, put on some music and danced my heart out for nearly 30 minutes! Don't ask me why I did that lol, I love dancing and sometimes I can't control the urge. Anyway after a quick shower I went out to Russian/Toul Tom Pong market for my weekly grocery shopping. I loooooove going to the market in the morning (this was around 7.30am) coz then the produce is fresh, the smell is fresh (except the meat section) no actually even the meat section smells better in the morning than in the afternoon :D. I have had some bad experiences at the markets here... remember when

My lovely readers, I hope you're all doing very well. I have just started my summer vacation, so I am enjoying doing lots of nothing at the moment. I see myself going to lounge by the beach soon :) Anyway I wanted to write a short post I have been thinking about. Ok so there was a time I was jobless for a good few months, and I had to stretch a dollar as far as it could go in order to survive haha. And during this time I learned a lot. I learned just how little one can spend out in PP, if need be. I usually had a budget of $5. Yes I said $5. And I managed to do a few things with only $5. Did I wish I had more to spend? Yes, but you know what it wasn't so bad. I usually use these tricks even now when I am trying to save up for something, or if I go on holiday and spend way more than I should have lol- it happens right? Now before I say what these activities are, the $5 does include transport...but only $1 each way (from your house and back) and this works for me, coz I use mot
