Legit travel advice mission statement

Dear reader

I am new to blogging. this is in fact my first blog post. the point of this blog will be to make an open source travel advice blog that isn't a listicle or a shill selling something or just bad.

After I came back from travelling I wrote some advice and information about my travelling experience and wanted to post it somewhere and couldn't find anywhere that would accept guest pieces or even had the kind of writing that I would have actually wanted to read before I left. This is an attempt to remedy that and to facilitate the sharing of travel information. Due to the nature of blog-spot blogs blogs can have multiple authors so if you the reader want to share some great advice from your travelling then feel free to message me and I'll add you as an author and you can publish your piece. This way there can be a big centralized list of legit travel advice for budding adventurers.

Travel advice for Cambodia

Cambodia Siem reap - 3 days - y ou can drink the tap water in large cities in Cambodia like Siem Reap and Phenom Phen. When going to Angkor Wat you can buy a ticket for the day the night before the day you want to go and go that evening to Angkor Wat and then also the next day i.e. the day you bought the ticket for. Also if  you're buying a ticket for someone else you need to have a photo of them as they put your pic on the ticket. Siem Reap itself has a jarring but interesting mix of cheap local markets and expensive westernized malls. Socially, Pub Street offers a great place to drink and meet other travellers. £100 spent. Phenom Phen - 2 days - is the capital city of Cambodia and has an interesting assortment of palaces, temples and government buildings. The two must do trips (both of which can be done comfortably in a single day) are the Killing Fields and the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (aka Prison S-21). Neither will make you feel happy as they both document the grim re

Travel advice for Fiji

Fiji - 2 weeks You fly into Nadi (pronounced Nandi). You’ll probably end up staying at a Wailoaloa beach hostel. When you leave Fiji to go to back to the airport you don't need to get a taxi to the airport. You can get a bus to the main road get off there then walk left for a bit then you'll get to another bus stop this bus will take you to the airport for 2 FJD as opposed to 15 FJD for the taxi. I drank the tapwater in mainland Fiji and I was fine.The food in Nadi town is much cheaper and nicer than the food at the hostels/hotels at wailoaloa. you can get to and from Nadi town by a cheap bus rather than an expensive taxi. There is a corner store near the hostels in Nadi which sells much cheaper beer than at the hostel bar. When you go out to the Islands you can't drink the tapwater so before you go buy your own (2/3 litres a day) or get other peoples/your old drinking water bottles and fill them up at a tap and bring them before you go. At a push you can drink t
