A gourmand pilgrimage to Scottish shores
BBC Travel, July 18, 2013
Home to more sheep than people, the remote Inner Hebrides island of Iona is developing a flourishing slow-food scene, where gardens are only fertilised using seaweed.

Island-hopping off Cambodia’s coast
Lonely Planet, June 7, 2012
The picturesque islands scattered across the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Thailand are some of Cambodia's last pristine spots. None have paved roads, cash machines or 24-hour electricity, but what the islands lack in amenities they more than make up for in natural beauty. Development is just around the corner, though, so you’ll have to move fast to get there before the relaxed atmosphere is destroyed by an influx of planned luxury resorts.
Located two and a half hours from the mainland, Koh Rong is truly stunning, with picture-perfect white sand beaches and placid aquamarine surf. The 78-square-kilometre island, home to 43 kilometres of beaches, is full of diving, snorkelling and jungle trekking opportunities. The most developed of the islands off Sihanoukville;s shore, Koh Rong has more than a dozen guesthouses and bungalows and small local restaurants serving cold beer and freshly caught seafood.

The best islands in Cambodia
Travelfish, Apr 29, 2011
Sihanoukville is Cambodia's premier beach destination, popular with locals, backpackers and expats alike. But despite massive amounts of recent development, the town can still be disappointing for those who come expecting a Thailand-like beach experience.
Sihanoukville's beaches just aren't very impressive, and the child beggars and crusty sexpats only add to the feeling of seediness that the place exudes. Luckily, though, Sihanoukville proper can just be a pit stop on a trip to a true beach paradise.
