It’s been 2 weeks in since I got here to Battambang and after a few years without traveling, it’s been amazing to learn how to do life here.

In many ways, my design eye in Hong Kong has continued developing as I observe things around the city – advertisement from big agencies here is very clean and direct, yet other kinds of advertisement can be quite overwhelming with a lot of big typefaces and crazy layouts and color choices.

These 5 things are based on what I’ve learned personally but I wanted to share it, if it’s helpful to those who are planning to do short-term or long-term missions, or just traveling to new places in general.
