Hey there, my name is Martin, welcome to Cambodia! I completed my high school education in 2003 and began my career as a teacher at the Remote Area Kids Organization. I worked as a Tuk Tuk driver, guiding tourists around the temples in the Angkor Archaeological Park. After graduating in 2010, I undertook a six-month training program with the Ministry of Tourism to become a professional guide. Upon completing my training, I began working as a local guide, leading tourists across Cambodia In 2012, I advanced my career by becoming a Group Tour Leader with Intrepid, an Australia-based worldwide tour company. I led tours throughout Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia until November 23, 2019, when the COVID-19 hit. In 2022,I returned to the tourism industry with renewed passion. I am deeply committed to sharing my extensive knowledge and love for Cambodian culture, history, and traditions with visitors. My work allows me to connect with people from around the world and foster meaningful friendships. Thank you for considering me as your guide.
