the only word that really describes how im feeling at the moment is content. i wouldnt use the word happy, even though i often am. but equally i am not sad, i have learnt to be content. several things have happened this week that put me in a bummer but i tried not to dwell on them so much and just put up with the difficulties of living here on my own. i have been feeling pretty lonely at the moment as well, so i will let you know how it is have i few new people arriving this week and next.
ive been putting together a little list of things to do when the girls get here a week on wednesday, this includes:
- spider eating at the river front
- shooting an AK-47 at the firing range
- visiting the monkeys and elephant at wat phnom
- boat ride up the mekong
thats all i can think of at the moment but i will endevor to make it a thrilling week!

Just so the Fox, and others knows....Wasps also pollinate flowers such as the orchid where as Bees cannot pollinate these flowers, therefor giving wasps a purpose. (Their sting is stupidly pointless though, agreed)
Anonymous, there's a few things you still need to learn in life....
There are between 25,000 to 30,000 different kinds of orchid throughout the world, and many more types that have yet to be discovered.
Additionally, there are also approximately 60,000 known types of
orchid hybrids, unknown in the wild, that have been created by
orchid growers. Orchids are the largest flowering plant family on
earth.
The size of an orchid plant can range from microscopic to several
feet tall. The bloom of an orchid can range from very tiny to larger than a human hand.
The 'Dactylorhiza fuchsii' is the most common British (This is the country where we live!!!) orchid plant (A.K.A -The common spotted orchid). Its main pollinators include hover flies, female Cuckoo BEES, Buff-tailed BumbleBEES and the beetle Dascillus cervinus.
The Ophrys apifera is another common orchid in our land (A.K.A. -the bee orchid). The main way this beauty pollinates is through a self-pollination process. Wasp pollination is a secondary process. Not essential for the survival of our dearly beloved
Further to your pollination remark, carrion flies, bettles, bats and some ants pollinate plants too, but it doesn't give them any meaningful purpose in life. Why should it give the wasp!?
Put that in your wishy washy wasp pollinating orchid pipe and smoke it with the insects!
