We loved our week in Kampot, especially driving ar We loved our week in Kampot, especially driving around the countryside. Just past our bungalows on Fish Island, the road turned into the red dirt Cambodia is known for and we passed several salt flats. Unfortunately no one was working them so we didn't get to see the piles of salt, but they were pretty just the same.  #countrysidedrive #cambodiatravel #kampot #saltflats #beautifulcambodia #okennasodyssey #cambodia🇰🇭 #seasiatravel
Angkor Wat has been on the bucket list for a long Angkor Wat has been on the bucket list for a long time and we were so stoked to finally make it there! We also felt quite lucky as we got to experience the magic with only a handful of other people due to the pandemic. Normally this sunrise event would be shared with thousands of people all jockeying for the best angle. There were maybe 15 others when we were there and it was so beautiful and peaceful.  #travelcambodia #angkorwatsunrise #okennasodyssey

Last autumn we got out on a lovely hike in Prespa Last autumn we got out on a lovely hike in Prespa National Park, on the border of Albania, North Macedonia, and Greece.  After a mountainous loop, we finished by walking along the stunning shores of Lake Prespa. It was a little rockier than we bargained for but the views were gorgeous!  #albaniatourism #thebalkans #easterneurope #okennasodyssey #lakeviews #hikemore #visitalbania #getoutside #landscapephotos #naturelovers
