Ko Phi Phi, Thailand

Ko Phi Phi, Thailand
The Island of Phi Phi in Southern Thailand... It was literally one of the most stunning places I've ever seen in my life and it was so hard to leave.

Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Capital City of Cambodia

Several of the guide books I read said that Phnom Penh could be missed and that rather it was just a gateway to get to Angkor. Well, Phnom Penh was really one of the highlights of my trip to Asia as it seemed quite authentic and was not flooded with tourists (ie the only thing Siam Reap has going for it is Angkor).  Walking through the market was definitely a highlight, and of course visiting the Killing Fields was a bit of a dose of reality.  Enjoy the pics...

The Killing Fields
Phnom Penh Cambodia Killing Fields
During the reign of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge from 1975-1979, approximately 21% of the Cambodian population died.  These skulls, along with thousands of others were preserved in a monument at one of the many "killing fields" in Cambodia.  Support the international tribunal that is still to this day trying those responsible for the crimes: http://www.cambodiatribunal.org/

The Web Showroom


To anyone who is looking for a good website design or online marketing company in Australia, I found The Web Showroom by doing a search for Website Design Sydney on Google. While there are many web design companies in Sydney, there were very few that my good friend Jordan Slover met with with while interviewing that build sites focused on conversion and functionality more than they do pretty design like The Web Showroom does. Not only that but they have a top notch online marketing team that helps their clients find the appropriate online marketing options to help achieve a companies' goals for growth. The three main ways they help in this regards is through search engine optimisation, Google AdWords management and conversion optimisation.

Please let me know if you know of anyone in Australia or New Zealand looking for either a great conversion focused website, help with online marketing or improving their conversion rates and I'll get the appropriate person to contact them.
