Final Day in Temple Town
Holy fucking buddha do I wish I could have travelled back in time when smart phones were just a twinkle in Steve Job's eye. They are a blight on the tourist landscape. I think the Buddha would agree. That being said, the reason I don't have one permanently glued to my palm is because it broke way back in Southern Thailand. What a blessing. Now instead of reflexively pulling up Instagram, I just stare off into space. I think some people call that meditation. I can comfortably sit and look at nothing for 10-15 minutes without getting antsy. I'm probably freaking people out...
Note: Only the most popular temples become overrun. There are countless temples and ruins that with a little work you can find yourself all alone. Angkor Wat is vast. Plenty of room to spread out.
This young chap happily gave me a tour of this super cool temple nestled far back in the woods. Very informative.
So cool.
Water buffalo are the best buffalo.
