As mentioned previously, I spent xmas in Cambodia with Emily and a handful of her Kiwi friends. The culture here in Siem Reap is certainly different from Vietnam. It's also much easier to travel here. All of the signs have English translations, they use the USD, and this is a very tourist-heavy town. Not that traveling in Vietnam was particularly difficult.
Christmas was lovely. We met the Kiwis for lunch and drinks, did a bit of last-minute shopping for one another, then spent the evening sitting poolside listening to Christmas music on my phone and drinking cocktails. For dinner, we went out for a fantastic Australian ribeye that only ran $13. And the rest of the night was spent drinking cocktails and dancing at an absurd bar. Not a typical Christmas celebration, but we did decorate a bamboo plant with festive bits of garbage:
