My name is chab vannkunn mostly people call me kunn I was born in sampov lourn village, kralanh district, comunce, siem reap province 54 km away from siem reap on the way to Thailand border poipet I still have 5 people in my family one younger brother and one the youngest of family and my parent
I have my English knowledge from Backpacker tourists’mouth from Thailand used to stuck the car t on the way to Angkor wat and then I brought them to stay at my local home and then I practiced some my English I have learned from private school it was hard to understand in speaking but easy understand in writing at first of my conversation.
1999 I and my younger brother moved to live in siem reap for graduated one year more in senior high school and my younger brother is the apprentice of mechanic in my uncle garage because he said school is making him tired. While I was studying I seized the the chance to work in one guesthouse for fill my stomach as cook and serving food in that time too I could use my English improvement get better and better even experienced as well, unfornately after access of my senior highschool for one year I have to carry on in university more in campital in phnom penh I really did not have ability I went back home to ask my parent sell my bull and buy me motor bike for driving tourists Angkor wat and then they did .and then come back to live with brother’s garage luckily I have known one Nowegian guy and he is one part of the owner of earthwalkers gueshouse in siem reap ,he is kind minde helpful giving me many works to do with his customers doing tour as motor dup and one year later in 2001 I apply for English speaking tour guide and I was access in that exam and become the official English speaking tour guide and motor bike driver until I have some money and look to myself was lonely not house and stay everywhere and sometime have food and some no have better I think going to get married with one daughter of the owner of one guesthouse where Thomas used to rend rooms there before .
In 21th of june 2003 I got married with Miss jasmine call vandy and I managed this local guesthouse tobe tourists guesthouse and right now i am the proprietor of jasminelodge and so I have to suspend my official English speaking tour guide and catch the guesthouse business instead, evenmore I have to go to border nearly 2 times a week for dealing with travel agency and brought tourists to our guesthoue but likely too much pressure hassle as tourists fell some of custmers did not stay and a few of them stay but feel like annoying just only stay not doing conversation and relationship to our family and use our guesthouse’s service so I was feel boring everyday but one day I mailed to my Norwegian friend and he give me advice
2004 I had one daughter name Malis mean Jasmine and she did not breath feed always need only poweder milk and cost too much money some diapers as well and one week later I got my own website and my tourists was staying in my guethouse highly recommended each other by words of mouth and got highly in author’s choice of independent lonely planet and so many tourists looking for my jasminelodge but some of them can stay in our lodge but some of them could not come because I got competition of taxi and tuk tuk driver kidnapped thme away from our guesthouse to other guesthouse with commission.
2006 I got one more son name Sunlin as mini kun being well-known of Mr john and Mrs phillipa in England and right now I managed jasmienlodge with my wife’s grand mother in law and my parent in law together it is family business and my father in law is well experienced of electricity, crocodile farm and guesthouse maintainer.
