You can make a difference for dogs and cats in Siem Reap: Help now!

Today I went to @Ok Hok Sy Veterinary  and delivered three cages. Buntha is very dedicated to help dogs and cats but his resources are limited. After talking with him we figured out that one issue are the metal beds the dogs are laid down. This is better than on the concrete, but still not good. Cages would be a huge improvement. So I just bought three of them.


BUT: HE NEEDS MORE. AND YOU CAN HELP.






You can just buy one (Angkor Vets has them and can order more), or just call me (015879410) me or donate some money so we can buy more. A small cage is 27USD, middle size 34 USD a and big one 45 USD in a good quality. Buntha is located near Spoons restaurant in a small alley behind Wat Damnak.




.
100 Dollar in total would make it possible to get rid of the metal beds.

What is wrong with my Papaya tree?

My landlords planted a Papaya tree in our garden, and it grew well over time, until it start's getting blossoms. I grew Papaya in Laos and Thailand, but I have never sees those kind of Papaya blossoms. They are way to many and the stalks are way to weak to support any fruit.
soil here isn't the best, mainly sand. I used fertilizer but I don't think it was boosting the tree that much. some flowers are following down already and I haven't seen any pollinated so far.

Is this a special species of Papaya? Any thoughts much appreciated.

At Angkor Archaeological park.



 It was good to be back after so many years. I was quite impressed to see one temple completely restored – when we visited the place for the first time around 12 years ago it was just a pile of stones. Entry fee will go up from 20 to 37 USD in February, so better go now. #blog #temples #cambodia #ancientbuildings #khmerculture #siemreap #blog

Biolab is a new coffeeshop in town on Wat Bo road.



good and affordable coffee. service needs more training and confidence. the chairs force you to sit straight otherwise the backrest will hurt you after a while (UPDATE: They improved the backrest) It's also a co-working space (5$/day) . #siemreap #coffeeshop #Cambodia #khmerlife #blog
