I’m so funny. I wanted to celebrate New Year outside Kuala Lumpur and I picked Phnom Penh simply because not much Malaysian go there 

We travel mostly in Phnom Penh by Tut Tut. We found very lovely Tut Tut driver and he’s the one who recommend where to visit. I don’t know why I trusted him. Maybe because he look like someone who won’t rip me off. His english very basic and we communicate a lot by hand pointing at the Phnom Penh map and I constantly giving him my charming smile. It really help, ok!  If you don’t speak Khmer or any other local language, smiling is the best language to show that you are happy in their country.

Hey. Here are a couple of pics from our day. I’ve cleaned up, made dinner and now I’m sitting on the couch. Lana is by my feet chewing on her blanket in front of the fireplace. Our tree is glowing, a movie is playing and I’m only a little bit lonely.

Today is Christmas Day and it also Kim’s Birthday!

Kim,

If wishes come in rainbow colours…..I’d send you the brightest one to say…..Hope you have a Birthday that’s as wonderful as you! Happy Birthday, honey!!!

Hey!

My parents have a house in the country which I rarely visit but yesterday they had a Christmas party so I packed my truck with snow pants, sleds and some kids and up we went. I took some videos of the wintery fun we had and I’ll try and get them online soon. Check out how beautiful my mother’s house is. This picture is from midway down the field we were sledding in. You can see Lana running up to the house. There is about 12″ or more of snow here.

Happy Holidays!

Lana and I can’t get enough of the snow… It’s really pretty around here today. I took some videos of the storm, while driving around yesterday. I narrated them just for Nadiana.
Soon, I have to drive three hours to a party where there is over 14″ of new snow and I won’t be back until late tonight. I hope to get some evidence online, that I think of you all the time. I hope all is well in the sunny or is it Sunni state of KL! lol, peace out. _kim

Currently listening to : Everytime We Touch by Cascada

Short note from my heart : Sometimes I find myself somewhere and I’m just like, “Oh, it’d be really fun to get married here”. Have you ever experience that? I just found out that 3 of my colleagues plan to get marry next year. I guess 2009 is a good year to get marry

What’s your 2009 resolution?
