Bye Bye November
Bye Bye November! One the first years in a while that was actually home and worked! Both dentists I work for are from the Midwest… Wisconsin and Minnesota to be exact. November is deer hunting season in those parts, but this year one decided not to go. So what I’m getting at is: usually November…

Koh Rong: Cambodia’s Best Get Away
Koh Rong: Cambodia’s Best Get Away Keep in mind, my last visit to Koh Rong was in February of 2012. I’m sure things have changed out there. When I made my first backpacking trip to Asia and I would tell people where we were planning to finish off our trip, most people hadn’t heard of…
