Hello lovelies,today I want to share some of the most instagrammable places in Cambodia (that is not Angkor Wat), for the everyday person like me who does not have big professional cameras, drones and other fancy equipment haha. Checkout my Instagram  maggie_hon  I am very active on there. 1. Swimming pools In Phnom Penh, many hotels will allow you to use their pools if you spend a certain amount of money on food and beverage. Some of the nicer hotels will have a charge to use the pool. Here are some of my favorite pools. Plantation DM me on IG for the name of this location. This one too The Kabiki 2. The beach Cambodia has some amazing beaches and islands.

How to get back to Blogging after a long break.

Well my email address is full of  mail from people asking questions or just saying something. oh and by the way I hadnt checked that email (krazykenyan@yahoo.com) in yearrrssss and my heart broke when I saw the emails piled up, of people who's questions were somewhat urgent to their situations. I am really sorry about that. I still live in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. This has become like my home now, all I need is a husband and ill be set..hahah. I go back home to Kenya for two or three months every year. Usually over summer break ie June and July and for christmas in December. Although the last few Christmases I opted to go travelling somewhere instead of going home (except Dec 2018 where I spent Christmass here in PP)...
