Discover the Essence of Cambodia is an annual luxury travel magazine published by the fine folks at the Southeast Asia Globe. For the 2014 edition, I took a helicopter to remote jungle temples, sailed to tropical islands, kayaked through a sprawling flooded forest, and kicked back in some of the country’s classiest resorts. You can find links to several of my stories below. The full magazine is available online at discover-cambodia.com.
