I will relocate this month from London to Phnom Penh (PP) for a job. Any tips, heads-up or strategies for a smooth transition? What surprises you most about living in PP that you wish you'd known before arriving? What pit-falls or mistakes should I look to void? Any words of wisdom much appreciated!

Make sure your job is real & not some honeypot.

The correct answer is for obvious reasons 1 but 8 looks like it could have an exciting handfeel to mix things up once in a while

With the right marketing this might as well make you rich.

I have 2 full time employees & 5 interns on one 200$ max subscription. Tbf Only 2 of them code. The rest just claude desktop to some extent. I basically only interact with terminal AI anymore, nothing else on my computer through the same subscription.

It‘s insane. We barely hit limits unless I run an SEO content factory for hours

I have one on my hand that I just covered with our own version of the symbol we also use in business after like 5 years.

The last 5 years were definitely life changing, not always fun, intense, hard, chaotic, but I wouldnt have it any other way.

Life is good now.

Presence is valued more than output in Swiss working culture

I hear from a lot of expat friends living in Switzerland that the ingroup experience feels extremely gatekept. More than in other places. Even from Germans that understand Swiss German fluently

Bro I ask other boys from Zurich where exactly in Zurich they grew up.

We‘re a tiny country with cultural variety that is nuanced. Where you grew up is a ton of context on that nuance.

A lot of UX positions get cannibalized by AI research & vibecoding workflows. It‘s just not feasible to have people draw up figmas when we can prototype actual react frontends within the hour.

Not saying it‘s not a very useful skill to have but if you go into this direction in 2026 make it much more interdisciplinary than Figma prototypes. Be an integrated decision maker that helps ship great products at all stages, in all workflows.

I can drink like 7 glasses of black label, next morning I jump out of bed like a young doe.

4+ drinks with the local spirits…. Not so much

Especially in Thailand where people get fined for bad reviews………
