Did you know that Angkor Wat is not one ruin but a humungous city constructed over six centuries, littered with acres of carved stones, walls, Hindu and Buddhist temples? I spent two days the first time, and four days on a second trip, visiting 13 different temples, quite a few of which can be safely bypassed. Siem Reap is a jumping and fun small town while Phnom Penh has important, historical sights, e.g. The Royal Palace filled with diamond encrusted Buddha images and Khmer Genocide memorials. Leave time for Markets, little boutiques, stroll along the Tonle Sap River embankment, and to eat wonderful food. It seems like some people work their entire life to take an Exotic Vacation, when in reality, such a trip can be had for less than taking the family to DisneyWorld. ESPECIALLY IN CAMBODIA. Other than the cost of getting here, Cambodia can be so cheap that the travelers often think this country is paying them to visit! Or, opt for luxury in some of the World's finest hotels. HERE'S SOME INFORMATION YOU'LL FIND INSIDE... - Fast & Easy Basics for Visiting Cambodia. - What To See and Do in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. - How to Save Big Money! Let Travels With Sheila teach you how to Travel the World on a Budget, share exotic locations known only to locals, and most importantly, ease your fears about languages, currencies, personal safety and staying healthy. Sheila tells it like it is with the good and bad, personalized, up-to-date information, and photographs you need to make the most of your trip to Cambodia. Learn from her experiences and speed through both places by following her travel tips.

Sheila Simkin, a native Chicagoan, has been traveling the world since 1960. The travel bug first hit on her honeymoon in Miami. Fidel Castro had just taken over Cuba and lured by rock-bottom prices, Sheila sweet-talked her ex-husband into abandoning Miami for Cuba. That marked the beginning of her lifetime travel passion and addiction. There are very few countries that are not on her to-see list no matter how remote and/or difficult they may be with many, "What was I thinking of" moments in hindsight. The U.S. State Department recognizes 193 independent countries and she has visited over 150 in over 40 years of travel (but...who's counting). Touring, hiking, trekking, rafting, snowshoeing, skiing, volunteering on archaeological digs, family trips and, she must admit, occasionally sitting on a beach and compulsively shopping. Her goal is to encourage you to take the big step and travel to more exotic, remote destinations with tips, anecdotes and reassurance that, yes, you will come back alive. Visit her "travelswithsheila" channel on YouTube to watch over 1,400 videos filmed around the world and covering the gamut from taking a cruise to camping in Egypt's desert, food (fried tarantulas, anyone?), sights and even instructions on how to navigate subways in Paris and Beijing. All Travels With Sheila Guides will tell you the truth, and only the whole truth, about each country and whether sights are a hit, or a miss. Follow Sheila's advice to avoid making mistakes she learned the hard way. For example, not knowing that an important piece of equipment when camping or trekking is...an AIR MATTRESS? A never to be forgotten experience spent in a sleeping bag on the cold, hard ground of Nepal. And what kind of crazy idiot goes trekking in Siberia and gets lost? Really...lost in Siberia? Only Sheila.
