Pick by what you want
🇨🇾 Choose Cyprus if
you want reliable sun and warm sea with short flights from Europe and the Gulf, and a small island you can drive across in two hours.
🇰🇭 Choose Cambodia if
you want the most impressive ruin in Asia, and a country that is still cheap and still quiet once you leave it.
