So VP twitted me today that we're "backpacking" and doing the road trip of 23 Provinces in 3 days in the Kingdom. Quoting the twit: "U, Me & 2 green pantone chairs". Sounds Exciting!
I am up all night trying to figure out how we're going to do this. I am scared just because I don't like my husband driving around Cambodia. Over the years I had developed an irrational fear of Motorcycles zigzagging along the road especially in intersections. I only like road trips only when there's another driver (Because I can't drive and will not drive. Again irrational fear...).
Pushing my fears aside and being me, I am of course researching about our itinerary.

I assume that our itinerary will be the following despite the fact that I don't know if there's existing roads going through this provinces (Google Maps can't find the unknown roads!) or if this can be done in 3 days. Now after chatting with VP (who is currently in PP for new projects!) we're making it 6 days so we can stay overnight in some of the provinces and visit 24 provinces! We might skip Preah Vihear because of the temple dispute but lets see....
