Hey brother!

Happy to read that you're having a good time in Lima.
Seen a few temples myself in Angkor (cambodia), which are considered 1 of the 7 world wonders. Got tired though, 12-13 hours of temples and sales-kids... Isn't it really a bitch when you get up at 4 a.m. to sea this sight of sun-rise, supposed to be amazing in the Angkor-watt temple, but it's covered with clouds?

Poverty is all around in Cambodia as well, and sometimes the streets and alleys of Phnom-Penh feel with heavy smell of some bizare cooking. It is the most beautiful country though.

Today i got to have some tiyul-shoa in the cambodian-genocide-sites, such as toul-sleng prison (museum today) and cheung ek killing fields. You would havefound it interesting. It was a real holocaust, even if not as big as ours.
Off-course, it suited my mood today, since i wouldn't be happy to see the glorious royal palace when I can't take Ori's murder off my mind and that's all I have been thinking about.

I love you, brother. Take care.
Missing you much,
Noga
