Description
We are a small familly, Franco Khmer with 2 boys (11-16). 5the elder is not at home since March, he decided to go have his own life to the nearby temple as a boudhist Monk.
I am working in the show business industry in Europe, so I am sometimes travelling there... and managing a small activity so i am doing "homework" and can be quite busy sometimes...
The main location is in the outsquirts of Battambang, right on the middle of a farmer village... it's impossible to be more authentic... if you are looking for a hosting we can think about it, and to go around we got motorbikes and quads we can rent then you'll be free to visit the surroundings or go into town. Or when i am free we can take you around of course.
We have build a tiny resort (2 bungalows + 1 bedroom). I am always thinking to improve things, like painting, gardening, or other work... I also spend some time into the swiming pool :-D ...
My wife and Son don't speak english nor french so if you feel confortable with teaching any of those languages you are more than welcome... Interaction with locals is an easy task here and not rare to be invited to a wedding, birthday party or even to funerals (in Khmer culture death must also be celebrated)...
