Wild coincidence in Cambodia – “I found Mr. Niem at the ruins of Angkor Wat. Notice that he also graces the cover of my Lonely Planet guidebook to Cambodia. Mr. Niem could not speak any English so communication was not easy. I do not think he knew that he was on the front cover of a book, until I showed it to him. He was so excited. I had to be careful, as too much excitement might not be good – he seemed like he might be about 200 years old.”
