Walk in the Sun (1)

2009 January 6-22, half a month's time, I visited Thailand, Cambodia, Malaysia in three countries.

Now the time has already past a whole year, the original experiences, feelings, imagination, are slowly fade away. However, this trip has really changed me, including my look at life, attitude, and later life.

Travel is a mood of relaxation and regeneration.

New environment, unpredictable events, strange people, wonderful thing, let people out of reality, from another angle, in another scope, to see life and living, found that we can in reality be better, more inclusive, more confident, more love life, love life.

Human and human, is the best in travel.

A smile, a few pleasantries, or chat in the bar, a lively breakfast, because the journey alone, we cherish the moment between man and man's together. Thus the journey of greater mutual help and mutual love. The way how many strangers help and guidance I from one destination to the next destination, how many people smile and praise, excite me greater self-confidence and courage to keep going towards new goals.

Angkor Wat, cities, KAO TAO, Kinabalu, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, a destination, which is set out in the reasons given I reached after great satisfaction.

History of the mark, picturesque scenery, hard top, leisurely walk, because there is always a goal, the journey has been full of significance.

Let the time back a year ago ...

January 6, 2009 Tuesday Chengdu (cloudy)---(cloudy)

Morning getting up early, to pack, it is a well-prepared traveler.

All to bring everything listed list, but I still forget hat.

In the downstairs restaurant hastily eaten lunch, 13: 10, taxi to the airport but 13: 30.

Flights taking off 14: 40, more than enough time to Air China CZ3454. The counter person tickets after a long period of service, I began to become impatient recent. Oh, psychologists say that this is not a good psychological reaction, Queuing is part of life, and I always feel that this is a waste of time, while also understand that even this time, I may not be able to make something worthwhile things.

The airport is a collection of local, Vientiane, people without distinction of classes, products better together.

Wearing old badge, chasing around young couples, and indecent peasant woman, dressed in suits of white-collar workers. People for the sake of an end to step on the journey, the uncertainty is one of the most worth looking forward to exciting. Sitting in the corner of airport, watched all imagine one of man's past and future, it's a delicious way to kill time.

Arrive at Shenzhen Airport time is 17: 00, night flying Bangkok flights in Shenzhen is 23: 20, I almost six hours to spare in transit.

Think of Shenzhen Airport to downtown and back two hours by car, think Shenzhen to me is a much more do not want to come to town, I decided to stay at the airport, pass this time.

For many years, I have been pursuing a life of efficiency, I hope not to waste every inch of the life, work, I work very hard, and in this way to practice.

However, life is becoming more and more worse. Finally I have time, I can stop and let the soul out of the own body, back, look at yourself. To the end, where there is a problem, and why so hard, pay, but not the life they want. I want to travel in search of answers, forget the time, forgetting the responsibility, to forget the ideal, forget the goal, perhaps, in the absence of purpose of wandering and wandering, you can rediscover what life, what is happy.

In the Shenzhen Airport around the field three times, a bit tired and a bit boring.

Find a corner in the cafe's secluded location, through the ground glass can look outside people, sit down and order a drink, read a book, look at the people. The Lai creative learning ", a book has never read the book, and finally have time to get down to look at. Books, life, work, we often only learned skills but lack the appropriate "wisdom", life of agony comes from the technique seems to have very strong, but always find happiness. The joy of the ancients and moderns happiness is the same, not because the technology's development, material progress and change, the degree of happiness is not changing. Because happiness comes from the people of the heart, the heart of man is not so quick evolution.

So when I go to dark, from cafes, in the airport of KFC point a set meal, go to the International Office next to the new ticket, small office watching a little world, it seems that Shenzhen international flights have been taken away from the Hong Kong and Guangzhou.

Display tonight only two classes for international flights, are Asia, Singapore, a class in a class of Bangkok.

Guojian smoothly, apron on aircraft fuselage on Asia's red flag, the first sitting on Asia.

11: 20, the plane take off on time.

January 7, 2009, Wednesday

Shenzhen (cloudy)---Bangkok Bangkok (fine)---Aram Aranya prathec (clear)

---Poipet Poipet (fine)---Siem Reap Siem Reap

Asia's seating is first come, first served, although I don't like, or you wish to find the aisle location, you can stretch out feet.

Asia's aircraft seat pitch is fairly good, not like the general international routes so compact. Imagine cheap air should be more calculation, it seems they save money method is not here. Air blowing from both sides of the tank top, white fog, there was a feeling of uneasiness.

I met on the plane of two men, one a bit LU, LEE, we chatted on the plane, obvious way

Affected the rest next to the people. Run to the South-East Asia LU perennial, do business, very outgoing, this trip to Thailand seems to be on the point of business. All the way to find on a plane can spell taxi's CityGuide, unfortunately, the large one aircraft Nordan eventually failed to do so. He is also very eager to recommend the hotel on the road, but in the end I still stick to their own established lines, we did not meet later. LEE is an observant boy, own printing a small 5-Word travel guide, travel gonglue are in the above, I Revere read the Bible, admire the laments their inaction. My so-called ready before him was not worth mentioning. However, funny is that the Bible could really play a role, is lost. LEE was also email asked me if I know it's whereabouts. I estimate it as we passed in forever remain in the Asia-Pacific Airlines flight.

I and LEE's schedule is very similar, we have to go to Angkor, and we actually have booked 20 to Kuala Lumpur.

I visit the biggest difference is I don't have to book a hotel only booked and six-course ticket. So my journey as a matter of fact there is great uncertainty. I asked LEE helped me in his book the hostel and then keep a room, he agreed. Later, we met in Kuala Lumpur.

Bangkok time midnight 1: 15, the aircraft arrived in Bangkok new airport.

The airport has seldom, let's take the luggage, LU go ahead and I and LEE in airport 1F took some night, just like the m-line like, acid sweet South-East Asia style, two people probably 80Bt. I put LEE away, the airport and go in a circle, very modern and very nice airport. Then find a few places, NAP. I have several times at the airport for the night, so very experienced, hard chairs, although sleep is not a very comfortable, but also through the mist, 5 o'clock awoke. I like the feeling of staying overnight at the airport, especially abroad, have a stray!

My plan is to go directly from the airport by car, transit, and then, on the same day to Cambodia to Siem Reap.

The airport to the BUS Terminal have a free Shuttle Bus, I first to uncover the Bus Terminal, because before the Raiders did not determine airport shuttle direct to Aram has been cancelled. Knowledge is am 7: 00 there is a direct shuttle bus of Aram, so I don't have to change trains in Bangkok city. At the BUS station and a fat Canada middle-aged women, very kind kindly manner, we are waiting for a bus when chatting. She has a two-month long vacation trip in Thailand, a simple conversation, she was very concerned about China's economic situation, the financial crisis so that everyone is concerned about the economy. I can only say that I feel good! soon, my bus came, we are smiling, waved goodbye.

January's Thailand climate very comfortable, are very suitable for a t-shirt around weather.

Very few people on the bus, in less than ten individuals, cabs have two drivers, it's amazing how this trip bus cannot make money, all the way through to the arameans, no soliciting happen along the way.

Friendly Thailand, help me to find a seat for me the way, this gives me the impression of Thailand is very good. In fact, I have unexplainable favor Thailand, but also for many years, I often fantasies, perhaps in the life of a window, I can spend in Thailand.

Three and a half hours by car in the car I slept a few, I finally arrived at the Aram.

Outside the Sun is shining, the border is chaos. It is a huge open-air markets, the air was full of strange smell, I wake up brains, avoid soliciting of Mo 's, down the flow of people, soon came to Thailand frontier.

Leave Thailand must do RE-ENTRY, otherwise return to Thailand require visa.

The frontier has a special counter for RE-ENTRY, 1020Bt, finished, queued again.

Exit a lipstick, chapter I of the first Thailand visas ended its mission, less than 12 hours.

After the crossing, as being poured out through friendship bridge, the Cambodian border, this side of the situation worse, order more confusion, building more dilapidated, more unpleasant smells.

After crossing the bridge on the broad road, there are a lot of people call you to visas, VISA, VISA 's, I wonder if true and false. Be careful, I kept finding the frontier. Very simple hut, three metres wide, ten meters long, it's hard to believe this is a national of the frontier, but here's personnel have uniforms, Visa chapter, there are many visitors queued, I guess it never was false.

A officials sat next to a person in your Passport, VISA (1000Bt) agent.

Because before viewing the Raiders, know that you can handle in Cambodia VISA at the border, so there is no national Office. So I have no other good way to get a passport and money to them, and then my heart palpitating and see how they operate. The man was about 20 or so of the passport, and then went out, I'm a little worried that if the passport back to travel, I also can end prematurely. However, all goes well, about 10 minutes, he came back with a passport visa affixed good. So, I hold this Passport when entering the queued entry, no Raiders Legend in the exactions, quickly seal the entry.

From the little house, even if the formal entry into Cambodia.

A uniformed man I'm going to take a free BUS to the Center. On the BUS to discover just squeeze in the small house of those foreigners all, occasional sat on two or three people, and I feel a little weird. But the language barrier, look at the outside is lousy, want to want to go again. The car is not waiting for full, soon depart, all the way to the Center. Obviously this is a new Center, alone at the roadside, before and after 1 km there is no other building. BUS leaves us, jibing. We have only one choice, and from there ride to Siem Reap.

In fact, this is still a regular passenger station, taxi queues outside a slider, pentad sat only prices on over Raiders

Say you have doubled. Me and my two foreigners carpool, $ 20 per person, the price didn't have to say. Raiders says a car is only $ 30. I hesitated for a half day, also had to admit, the mood a bit of a bad mood.

Later in the car, asked the driver, he said that he could only get 30 dollars, it is estimated that an additional US $ 30 to the center of the guys.

On the road, there is always some losses from point, how to, in the early years is oh, so the mood fades away. But this is really a pleasant climate in Cambodia, the days of high cloud, soon I would almost forget just unpleasant.

Poipet to Siem Reap probably 3.5 hours by car, the road is fairly good, like China National Highway, and high speed ratio, but also all the way to better run, cars, some sections are the road, drivers open Japan Toyota cars second-hand, windshield into pieces.

To Siem Reap seems to be the 4 o'clock, car only to outside the city.

Free milf Sub. Because I have not scheduled the master of the hotel, take me directly to a company called BE ANGKOR HOTEL Hotel QUEST, I look at the good, clean, single room with air conditioning and bathroom, 13 USD a day, selling his face, to live a day. Can this guy still brooding, I rent a car, I disagree, he cried to 1US DOLLAR, I also heart a ruthless, say that you initially say FREE, now it comes to money, determined not to, that they returned to the room on the floor, this guy also asked that question and soon went away.

In fact, the hotel has introduced, strategy or a Chinese person, I later met the boss, with his ancestral hometown in Fujian, the Chinese are good.

The hotel is very near from the old market, Siem Reap city is not big, so it is a good choice.

Back to the room a bath this way quickly, too tired too tired, put the air conditioner on foot, first American Yosemite bed to sleep on.

Half awake, I think you do not take days didn't black out to go, and not too hard, it is relaxed, don't give yourself a lot of tasks, they right after continue to sleep.

Wake up days is completely black.

A hungry stomach.

He went out to stroll around in a circle, the old Siem Reap Street, full of shops street restaurant.

In the street stalls to eat a plate of fried noodles (1us $) + a cup mango ice (3000r), and domestic Street night market almost, very worried about health issues, however, in later days, so eat and drink and drink, what happened to nothing.

Hard currency dollars here, Cambodia currency only for change.

1us$=4000r

Countries do this step, is enough.

In fact, this is a small country of sorrow.

Siem Reap's night of fun, night market, but don't want to buy something.

Back to the hotel on the way to see the size, dark, was very ugly. There are also many beggars, one holding the child money woman gave 1000r. Think life is hard, we also considered lucky.
