Arrived in Siem Reap, got a taxi in with a German couple who were going to my same hostel. $2.50 dorm, loads of beds on the floor in a massive attic, was a really well ran place though. Explore Pub Street on the night and the markets.
Got a snapchat on the night off Charlotte Bell of her in some bar, with a caption of Camboida, I sent her a message and it turns out she was in Siem Reap too lol!!!! Couldn't believe it!!!! I just straight out of bed and out to meet her lol. There was only two main bars so I knew finding her wouldn't be hard. I found out her and it was hilarious! She coulnt believe it. She was with her mate from uni called Jenny. We eventually called it a night, I went back to kip, and woke up for the England world cup match, which started at 5 in the morn. There was some really annoying Essex lads there who knew nothing about football, and didn't have a clue who which of the black players were which. Was so embarrassing. We got beat but played amazing.

Chilled and slept after a long night. Me and some dude from the bed over took a tuk tuk to the Agnkor Wat site, as after 5 they let you in for free, so we went for sunset. We seen some other temples and had a wonder about. Was so amazing. Seeing all these world famous landmarks is always strange when you see them in real life.
Met up with charlotte and Jenny on the night and we got some food, and arranged to meet up the next day for sunrise at Angkor.

Real early start in the morn, we took a tuk tuk who would be our driver for the day. As it being wet season it was overcast for sunrise, so there was no spectacular picture opportunities. And it started hoying it down at one point, so we sought refuge in a temple lol. The girls didn't seem to understand that getting amazing is not a mandatory event lol. We walked around, and drove to some more temples. Some were really cool, which massive carved faces on, we then walked through the jungle to find some more, and explored them. The girls weren't really that bothered, and I could see they were getting all templed out pretty quick. It didn't help when Charlotte had the runs off her curry the night before, and at one point had to go for a wildy in the bush. Our last one was the temple where a scene in tomb raider was shot, a real ancient temple with a massive tree and its roots all growing around it. Pretty epic.
We eventually went back, we had a nap. I then rocked back up to their hostel which had a pool, and we all chilled in the sun which maybe a cameo appearance. Was so nice chilling and craicing on which a familiar face. Also got talking a girl from hull who supported Sunderland!!! She was a right stunner as well. We then walked round the markets and the lasses done a spot of shopping ad we got a back shoulder and head massage after for $1. Really didn't know how to feel about it… was just down right painful.
We then went back to the hostel roof top for their 2nd birthday party. The place was really coold which nice lighting, comfry chairs and hammocks, as well as sand which covered the floor and made you feel as if you were on the beach. The hostel was also dished out a free keg of beer, meaning free beers until it was drunk, and also free shots on every turn of the hour. Played beer pong with some American lasses. We were having a good craic on, and tbh the last thing I wanted to do was play beer pong. It's the worst drinking game ever and just downright annoying :S the Americans love it though!!!!
Said bye to Charlotte and Jenny. Went to pub street with these two Mexicans to watch the Mexican match which turns out wasn't even on that night! We got some mad food including crickets, trantuala and frog, and watched Germany destroy Portugal. On the night was a right laugh too, the two main clubs face each other, meaning the two spill out onto each other in the street where people are always dancing and s*** lol. Some irish lads taught everyone this dance you do with your legs in pairs, and every started doing it, was well funny lol.

Chilled. Found out I was successful on the BP interview, so I booked my flights out of here to KL for the next day, as well as flights to Kota Kinabalu in Borneo for the day after. Got my awesome skran as usual from a street place, a bowl of amazing pork, veg and pinapple curry with rice all for $1. I actually miss it thinking about it.
