Siem Reap: Celebrity Sighting

If you've watched Tomb Raider, you must know that a part of the movie was filmed in the Angkor temple complexes. Angelina Jolie, who adopted Maddox from Cambodia, had done a scene in the famous Ta Prohm temple, which has been kind of left in the state it was discovered - crumbling stones, collapsed corridors, almost entirely covered by huge trees and vines and all. Ta Prohm is a photographer's dream when it's not overcrowded by tourists. So, guess who I saw there?

No, not Angelina Jolie. It's actually a guy and he's not an actor. More like, I guess, a model. His face has sold many many books...


The Lonely Planet Cambodia cover boy!


See, that's him.


Personally, I think my pic is so much better. The guy is counting greenbacks and selling tourist trinkets. It's as real as it gets. This is tourism boomtown Siem Reap! When you're that old a model, you need a more stable mode of income.
