Things that are not uncommon in Cambodia.. |
- 5 or 6 (the most we saw was 7) people on a Moto (the most common mode of transportation for cambodians, essentially a cross between a motorcycle and a scooter)
- 10+ people in a tuk-tuk (the most common way for tourists to get around, it's a moto towing a small passenger cab)
- at least 30 people piled into a van
- Haggling with Tuk-Tuk drivers
- Monks on motos, on laptops, on cell phones, on facebook
- Fish foot massages
- Paying under $6 for a massage
- Eating insects (mainly tarantulas) sold on the side of the road
- Eating frog legs at a restaurant
- Tiny Bananas
- Food served in coconuts, banana leaves or pineapples
- Women chopping meat on the sidewalk
- Raw meat and fish sitting out all day long in the market in 90 degree heat
- Market stalls where vendors sit on top of their merchandise because there is no space
- Children waving at large busses
- Children wearing no pants and/or no shirt, usually no shoes
- Children selling nicknacks on the street, outside temples, on the Habitat site, anywhere there are tourists
- Paying 1/10th what you would pay in the states for just about anything
