A love of South East Asia saw Asha leave her homeland of Australia for the hot nights and cool breezes of tropical Asia. She has been based in Cambodia for the past 4 years and travelled extensively around the world, eating, drinking and walking until it's time to eat again.
The Thai Hua Museum features more than a dozen exhibition rooms focusing on the history of the island of Phuket, along with a few short films. The museum tells the story of the Chinese influence on the culture and development of the island. The museum is in a historic mansion with a really interesting courtyard/garden area. It’s a pretty small museum, and it’s not going to win any international awards, but it’s a great way to learn about the history of this beautiful island—something you won’t find elsewhere.
