...takes you inside a few of the many girly-bars around Streets 104 and 136 in the popular riverside-area of Phnom Penh. Most of the bars are packed with girls waiting to provide expats or tourists with some engaging female company.

Providing a neck-massage in the hope of earning a ladydrink, these girls keep smiling even when no one enters.

You never know who will come in and when.

Then its time to party with some chat, flirting and massage, all geared towards getting that ladydrink and enjoying the moment. They get a dollar for each ladydrink so it's an important addition to their monthly wage packet.
