Sothy
Sothy is a legend, having worked as a guide across Cambodia and Thailand for the last 18 years. He loves telling jokes and sharing his country and culture with visitors from all over the world. When he was young, he spent time with monks at the temple, and learned to read Sanskrit and chant. He speaks fluent Thai, Lao, English, and a bit of French. Respect for culture is important for him, and he remembers everything he learned from old people at the temple. He has worked in the floating villages on Tonle Sap, and built more than 20 floating homes in Prek Toal Village.
