The 4 Rivers Floating Lodge was built on the Tatai river, amidst the beautiful nature of the Cardamom Mountains of Cambodia. A luxury Eco-lodge, it is located between Bangkok and Phnom Penh, and a 20 minute drive from Koh Kong City.

It may take a while to get here, as there are countries I wish to explore before traveling to Burma, but THIS looks beyond incredibly cool and is definitely on my bucket list!
