In this extremely personal and difficult episode, I am sitting in a temple in Cambodia surrounded by monks, prayers and the sounds of nature. There might be a little background noise and my thoughts might be a little sporadic but this is a raw reflection about one of the hardest and most important travel experiences I’ve ever had. In Phnom Penh in Cambodia, I visited the S21 prison Tuol Sleng and the killing fields from the time of the Cambodian genocide committed by the Khmer Rouge in the late 1970s. I hope to educate you at least a little bit about this genocide and how it relates to what is currently going on in Palestine. As I always say it’s your duty as someone who travels to put in the work to understand the history and the culture of a country that you are visiting. Cambodia is INCREDIBLE, it’s so beautiful and authentic and vibrant. But you cannot understand anything about Cambodia without understanding this part of their history.
