When we finally got on to the last bus we found a guy sitting in one of our seats. Little did we know he was not only Swedish but also a local! It didn't take long before we were asking him about anything and everything. Five hours later when we arrived at Sihanoukville we felt like we actually knew a bit about everyday life in Cambodia.
He paid for our Tuk-tuk, a whopping 1 dollar, since he knew how to barter like a mad man. We got droped of at our hotel and we decided to meet up later for a beer or two at a place called Sky bar, but first we had to get the dust of from the road. 35 hours on different busses require a shower to say the least.
The hotel was really nice and the pool beckoned for us to go in. We ended up staying at the hotel a little bit longer than planned and when we finally set out towards the bar the sky was already darkening. It took us a while to find the bar as people didn't really understand english and thus it was hard for us to gain the right direction.
At last we arrived at Sky bar and saw Dennie sitting there with a cute little Cambodian lady that squealed with exitement when she saw us and basicly ran up to introduce herself. The lovely little lady was named Charnai and later we found out that she was the owner of the bar. Everyone was crazy friendly and it felt like we fit right in. Dennie brought more friends that were from Sweden and Denmark and we befriended an English couple at one of the tables next to us.
At around midnight Charnai closed her bar and we headed out to see the nightlife of Sihanoukville. With that lady there was no way we could have a bad time. And we were right cause we had one of the absolute best nights out in a long time!
