Cambodia is easily my favorite of the three ... Siam reap and tour anker wat... it’s cheap and food is amazing...

then Vietnam ... If I remember correctly there is an amazing 5 star hotel called Saigon (or Vietnam) hotel - they took great care of me after I got kidnapped in a cab and shaken down for all the $ I had-... (always make sure the car is white and green,)

I would say Vietnam was amazing ... but that put a serious damper on my trip... go to Vietnam just be careful.

It was hotel Saigon... they really took great care of me.

RuMa Hotel in KL, loved the interiors and convenient location in center of city

I loved this place

The landscape around the hotel looks like it is from a movie (a Vietnam war movie but beautiful all the same). It is gorgeous. You can borrow bikes and explore the countryside. So many great hikes and boat rides in that area. Lots of temples to explore and some great restaurants and cafes.

The food at the hotel is so good and the rooms are the best I’ve ever stayed in. The indoor/outdoor bathrooms - wow.

Cambodia is just the best , especially for solo travel. I would recommend hitting Siem Reip, Phnom Penh , Kampot, Kep , Sihanuokville, and Koh Rong.

Vietnam is also pretty nice, I'd recommend Hanoi and Hoi an. Skip Da Nang .

Happy to share more if you can give an idea of what you like doing.

⚠️Toxicity Alert ⚠️

My previous manager would track us by hours daily, made a fuss everytime anything stretched and guilt us for that and the unplanned leave too unless it was COVID. Hinted him a lot of time, this is problematic but apparently he considered it "standard practice for agile".

Now 8/10 teammates have switched within < 1 year of project start (6-7 months with him) which tbh had good work in our opinion and even team was fun to work with even though none of us ever met in person.

Best Marriott hotel in London? Looking at 5 nights shortly after the New Year, no specific plans.

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.
