Long weekend

Last weekend I took a Saturday- Monday long weekend in Phnom Penh. It was a great time to run, swim, eat and catch up with friends. I love to take a short break in Phnom Penh because it's different enough to know I'm away from home and work responsibilities but familiar enough that it still feels like home.

One of the highlights was taking a Cambodian friend to try the curious foreign food item known as pizza. We sat at a rooftop bar in one of the tourist districts. The menu was only in English, but he thought my powers of ordering food were almost genius. "Pizza and beer go together so well!" Hmm.. maybe Australian guys and Cambodian guys aren't so different after all?!
