A Weekend in Siem Reap: Temples by bike & more

by alongcamealex | Apr 24, 2018 | Asia, Cambodia, Travel

Siem Reap, Cambodia has been on my bucket list since the first day I saw a photo of Angkor Wat. I only had two days in Siem Reap so I had to make it count! In order to effectively see as much as I could the first day, we booked a bike tour from Viator. Honestly, one...

☔️ a rainy summer day in 📍London 🇬🇧 ☔️ a rainy summer day in 📍London 🇬🇧 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔺I’m not sure why, but this photo reminds me SOO much of my grandparents from Brooklyn because of something they’d used to do. Whenever I was being dramatic (which is often), they’d say “BRRrrring! BRRrrring!” pretend to answer their phone and then say “Oh, it’s for you. Hollywood’s calling.” 😂 ☎️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔺My grandma’s been in the hospital for 20+ days & my grandpa is homebound in a wheelchair so it’s hard that they’re separated, especially with the holidays coming up 💔 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔺Whenever I get sad about them, I try to think of all the funny memories and phrases they’ve given me. Another one that CRACKS me up thinking about it now is that every time we passed a bathroom, my “ma” would make us use it. As she took a drag of her cigarette with her long, manicured hands, she’d say in her accent: “a lady’s always good for a little squirt” 🤣😳🤯 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ \\\ verse of the day: “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10 \\\

So, I snapped this pic. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ // verse of the day: “She is clothed with strength and dignity and laughs without fear of the future” Proverbs 31:25
