Cambodia

4 years ago

Greetings Fellow Aliens! I am looking for the best place to live in Cambodia. Am hoping to move there in October from America and stay for a very long time. Will be on a mid-range budget and looking to have fun with and be some help to the people. Would like to take part in Buddhist activities, do some very part-time volunteer Conversational English teaching (certified) for Monks especially but also maybe school kids/University students, hospitality workers, whoever—and enjoy nice scenery, non-debilitating sex, and ganja. I don't drink alcohol anymore, so the ganja is important. But without question the most important facet is a friendly, relaxed, progressive atmosphere and population. I would be very grateful for any contact from anyone with constructive observations, helpful hints, and ideas about general or specific aspects of life as an ex-pat in Cambodia—especially in relation to where is the best place to get the above-described conditions met. I am in good shape for a 67-year-old man but an area that does not require a mile uphill walk to get clean water, and a room/apartment with a bathroom and kitchenette in it that is quiet enough for meditation but close to where things happen are musts. Been there, done that rustic adventurous thing, having lived some in the woods in America, in a very rural Thai temple for half a year (which is the subject of my second book, “Reincarnation Through Common Sense”) and more. Convenient shopping, some creature comforts such as working Internet, groceries near by, Juice bar/Vitamin store accessible in-country somewhere, air conditioning, etc. would all be nice if it doesn’t break the budget. (I’m guessing AC might be essential most of the year?) I know you have a lot of relaxing, etc. to do and I very much appreciate any time and attention you can give me for a response. Many thanks. Be well, Tenzin (alias Doug “Ten” Rose) p.s. I have worked at (and managed a dorm once at) hostels in America, and so may also eventually be able to help out hotel/guest house owners with more than the conversational English teaching—perhaps writing promo copy in English as well as direct guest contact. But I digress! Any work of such a type will be very secondary to relaxing, meditating, partying, and writing! Please see website for my real background/references/news articles/TV and radio interviews, etc., if you are interested in such things. Thank you! www.fearlesspuppy.info
