You know those kids on the streets who chase you and tell you to buy their postcards?

Buy em!

They sell these postcards for USD $1! There are usually 10 postcards in the whole package. That’s a really good deal, cause souvenir shops and the post office sell ONE postcard for USD $ 0.50!

Since I wrote a lot of postcards, I had to buy more and more. Ben (see picture), who sells postcards and bootlegged books, is quite popular among the kids at Bar St. He caught my attention the day I arrived in Siem Reab.

I became his regular customer :)
