Asia Trip 006 - Siem Reap, Cambodia

Nick Hogan March 3, 2019

Asia Trip: Day 39 - Siem Reap (2/22/19)

  • Daily Highlights:

    • Met up with a buddy from Hong Kong

    • Went out to the markets and to pub street

    • HOT AS BALLZ (95 degrees Fahrenheit)

    • Went out to dinner with some friends from Koh Rong

      • Got the veggie curry, had a glass of chardonnay to try and settle my stomach

      • Waiter had a British accent and was v cheeky

    • Went out to another bar and got another glass of chardonnay

    • Then went home and slept

Asia Trip: Day 40 - Siem Reap (2/23/19)

  • Daily Highlights:

    • Got sick during the night again (apparently the curry and Chardonnay did not sit well)

    • Stayed in bed all day and slept

      • Did meet everyone in the hostel because I stayed in bed all day

      • Everyone was actually really nice and offered a lot of help

    • Got chili cheese fries for lunch

      • Surprise - they didn’t sit that well

Asia Trip: Day 41 - Siem Reap (2/24/19)

  • Daily Highlights:

    • Slept in bed all day and continued to watch Billions

    • Able to stomach foods and liquids again:

      • Brekkie: Full English Breakfast

      • Lunch: burger with fries

      • Dinner: Mango smoothie

    • Went out of the dorms and walked around the city with people from my room

Asia Trip: Day 42 - SIem Reap (2/25/19)

  • Daily Highlights:

    • Woke up at 4:15am to go see the sunrise at Angkor Wat

    • Angkor Wat was so crowded, mystical, and sprawling

    • Did a lifelong dream by going to see Angkor Wat

    • Had the best nap afterwards

    • Got lunch and went to snag ice cream afterwards

    • Talked about American food chains over breakfast

      • Made me miss USA

    • MY STOMACH FEELS SO MUCH BETTER

I went to get ice cream at this place called Swenson’s, it apparently is this big chain with locations all over Asia and maybe the world. For some reason, I could not figure out why I knew this chain but I did undeniably know this place. I could just not place from where I knew it from.

I was looking at the menu trying to figure out what to order and saw many pictures of the Golden Gate Bridge and names of streets in SF. Then it suddenly hit me, Swenson’s is an ice cream shop in Russian Hill by Elephant Sushi on Union and Hyde. So wild to have a piece of SF half way across the world.
