I lived in Siem Reap, Cambodia, and enjoyed it

 In the last few years I lived in Asia,  mostly Siem Reap, Cambodia 

I spent more than six months in Siem Reap, and moved twice while I was their. I saw apartments drom 50 USD a month to 250,.00 amonth.

I settled on one place near the city center, for 250,.00 a month and electric 20 to 50 dollars a month. Mostly it was AC that kept the bill high, the water was 5 bucks a month and not to much.

I lived in a four or five story building.  It was nice and I think it had two swimming pools. My place was pretty nice but small, the bathroom was big, the kitchen small and the living room average.  It came with TV and fridge and stove and washing machine.

It was close to markets and a coffee shop and mall. Although Siem Reap isnt to big it can be a chore walking to place so the taxis are cheap .50to a buck or more, so I used them a lot.

For a small city it was nice. Theres a river that runs through it, and on the riverside there are many stalls to eat from for two or three bucks. There are sandwiches you can get for over a buck that were pretty good too. Same with a bowl of noodles.

I rented a bike some days to go bike riding, and the car traffic was easy to deal with so enjoyed biking all over the place. It was the same taking long walks on the riverside.

Stopping in a beer cafe and getting beers for ,50 to a buck was nice and cheap. Speaking of food, theres a lot of small grocery store to buy imported food from or hard to get stuff that wasnt to expensive.  I think its partly because tax is low their. 

I spent a lot of time in coffee shops their, coffee is cheap and sometimes comes with a free tea. Its nice. Thailands coffee chains are their and its no problem ordering whatever you like.

Theres mant foreigners their, retirees, young people starting businesses,  and just regular tourists from China, Philippines ect.

I even got acupuncture their, it didnt cost much, the Chinese lady was very kind.

They even have nice gardens you can visit, one even had a coffee bar in it. Unfortunately i was stung by a bee or bug but survived. 

The cost of living is as cheap as you want, I even ran across people living on a few hunded bucks a month. The dollar is used their. Easy to get 500or more a day out of the cash machines. 

I bet i spent five hundred to eight hundred a month living their. The hospital s were cheap, theres a Thai and Japanese hospital their that most people use. If your really sick you will need to leave the country to Thailand. 

The visa at least last year was easy and cheap to get and as far as I know still is. It maybe more difficult to start a business but I dont think so.

If you have a proper visa, easy to open a bank account,  the Singapore banks are best in my opinion but each to their own.

At least for now its a good plan B for some people but you have to live with the Chinese influence their, I mean the CCP.

If you can live with that its a great place to live and deposit some money and run your online affairs. I liked it.

I still prefer Philippines but that place isnt perfect either.  Sometimes you can just meet Filipinas their,if thats a preference.  

Anyhow, thanks for reading.
