After an extremely long day of travelling we arrived late at night to our hostel in Siem Reap where we had reserved a bed for the next 4 nights. With Christmas only a couple of days away we decided we were going to buy a 3day temple pass to explore at our own pace. We met Lisa from Holland who was travelling solo and wanted to join us for the first day tour. We started our three day tour by hiring a tuktuk to take us to some of the smaller temples on the Grand C...
