Rachel and Lindy, an Australian couple i met at the guesthouse invite me on a trip to Rolus group, a group of temples located on East of Siem Reap.

Rachel (above left) specializes in Horticulture and Lindi is a social worker focusing on alcohol and drug abuse. Together they have 3/4 of an acre and a wooden house right outside of Melbourne. Inevitably they remind me of Wylda, my best friend/sister from Puelto Rico, and her girlfriend Nica.

at Prasat Preah Ko. the sign (can you see?) reads "no smoking/no littering/no eating/and NO SPEAKING" shhhhh!!!!!

Prasat Bakong. All three temples of Rolus group are far away from Angkor Wat, attracting much fewer tourists. Occasionally we see a large bus pull up and a bunch of Korean and Chinese tourists rush in, take photos and rush away. They are probably the most greedy kind of tourists who don't know to take it slow.

On top of Prasat Bakong. Sitting and exchanging our travel stories. Suzzanne, a stunning Swiss beauty joins us. She's been taking a year off traveling five continents, she's wearing the exactly same Buddha necklace as mine which she got in November of 2005 at the exactly same French-owned articrafts store in Luang Prabang, Laos where I got mine in February 2006.

on the way back on Tuk-Tuk. as much as i avoid tourists and being cynical about them, it's nice to be one sometimes.
