Peace and Harmony

After a few days of shopping in Bangkok we took the train to the Cambodia border where we went through the border and caught a bus on to Siem Reap. The guide book warns that the bus may try to make your journey as uncomfortable as possible in hope that when they drop you off at the guesthouse of their choice you will be tired enough to crash there for which they will receive payment. Our bus seemed to be doing strange things like taking us ten minutes away from the station where there is food,water, and a bathroom only to park and wait for a hour. When we arrived in town they took us to a parking lot five kilometers out of town and then sold Tuk-Tuk rides to everyone on the bus to take us to the center of town. A little frustrating but we made it to Siem Reap and stopped off at the Peace Cafe where we had made our initial WWOOF contact. It doesn't seem like there is much we are able to help with at the cafe they have a small garden that doesn't require much work. Tomorrow we will head out to harmony farm to help in the building of mud brick houses.
