Return to Cambodia...

It's been 8 years since I left Cambodia, the invaluable and under appreciated opportunity I had then played a crucial role in my life and career. The wilderness adventures will probably never be matched as the Cardamon mountains become tamed by eco-adventure tourism and my life moves in a different direction. To return and walk the same streets aroused great memories of 2002-03 when I landed an assignment with Conservation International tracking Elephants and Tigers. We slept wild in the jungle, savored wild nights in Phom Penh and battled Malaria. I wasn't able to meet with old friends with whom I shared this journey, its when one enters the developing world that we're reminded that Facebook and email aren't that effective.

How it was and how it is (2002 to 2010);
