The experience

“You’ll spot me right away,” our driver had messaged. And sure enough, there he was: standing by the only exit at Siem Reap Angkor International Airport, holding a sign with my name (I always get nervous about that part for some reason). The arrivals hall was a swirl of voices and humidity, but he just smiled and waved like we’d met before. I didn’t expect to feel so relieved to see a stranger.

We shuffled our bags into his car: cool air already humming inside. He asked if I wanted music or silence (I chose silence, my head was still somewhere over Bangkok). The drive into Siem Reap took maybe 45 minutes? I lost track. We passed motorbikes stacked with families, and little roadside stalls selling fruit I couldn’t name. My driver pointed out the new road built for the airport. He seemed proud of it. There was this faint smell of lemongrass from somewhere. Maybe someone’s lunch drifting in through the vents.

No one tried to upsell me or talk me into tours (which honestly happens a lot in other places). It was just…quiet, easy. He dropped me right at my hotel door without any fuss or confusion about the address. I still think about that first moment stepping out of the car: the heat, the city sounds, and just feeling like I’d landed safely where I needed to be.
