Nic pictures. It would help a lot if you include a description on each
picture like the name of the prosat, bung(pond), srass, tonle..etc. I
figured the beach is kep beach since you always end up there and the
cultural performance is from phoum vapata (khmer cultural center in siem
reap). Where is the lake and river taken from?

2 familes, both are my mom oldest brother's daugters are in Kampot, main
city, a few hundred meters from the main market. And the rest, which are my
dad's younger brother and sisters are in 'pume' Dong Thoung (in Kampot
province), close to the Kampot Cement Factory. I don't stay there over
night, just a few hours visit, make donations, etc. and a couple days in
hotel in Kampot. The rest of my trip? I'm on my own.

I only took the buses, no mini vans or taxi (i heard they drive too
reckless); plus my cousins have cars now. But when I travel to far
distances I just take the bus, cheaper.

So you are not really travelling alone after all. Is it true that sre
people now a day only do rice field and/or jomka? They don't don't do
gardening for every day living. I heard that most of the time they go to
the local market to buy grocery. To me, I think they have made it even
harder for themselves when they could produce those around the house. I
have always view sre people as resilient and very self sustainable. So far
I have been wrong. Sad....

I'm alone when I travel to remoted areas, but in PP my cousins took me
around.
Good question, I didn't take much note about the farm people, but I noticed
they grow just rice or banana around the house, and mangos. But not
vegetable. Then again on the islands where they can't grow rice, they grow
vegetables. Water is the issue. They can't grow when it's hot, not enough
water to drink, let alone watering plants.

I don't think it's due to water accessibility. There are other vegies that
required less watering e like vine type vegies. Like the gourgs, cucumbers,
pumkins, eggplants, luffy, chies, galanga, romeat, herbs, lemon grass,
fruit trees ..etc. I mean, the list goes on. You're probably talking about
spey LOL. However, I have seen people live near river and lake and yet
they don't seem to care about it either. I talked to an old man from Kampot
and he told me that they just don't produce their own foods period. They
just buy them. But they produce their own rice though and rice is really
scarce. LOL
