About AKKHE
A 10-day immersive group journey through Cambodia for Khmer diaspora to reconnect with the motherland, ourselves and each other.
Hosted and designed with love by me, Sela (@priscillakimong), A Koun Khmer Homecoming Experience is a rare chance to visit the homeland and rediscover our Khmer identities with koun Khmer from around the world.
We return to our roots, history, and the flavors that shaped us and land where our stories began.
Whether you’ve visited Cambodia before or are dreaming of your first time, I created this experience for those longing for reconnection, to culture, to community, and to home.
This isn’t your typical family trip to Srok Khmer. It’s a homecoming where you’ll uncover new parts of yourself and create a lifelong Khmer community of your own.
On this journey, we travel from Phnom Penh to Battambang to Siem Reap, and back.

“This experience with Sela truly gives you the safe space to connect, reflect, and deepen your understanding of Cambodia, and most importantly, what Cambodia means to you.”

What Makes This Trip Special?
Built for the diaspora, by someone who’s lived this journey.
For koun Khmer by koun Khmer.
Led by me, Sela (@priscillakimong), a Khmer-Krom American content creator, who’s spent that past 4 years reconnecting, learning, and healing in Cambodia. Learn more about me here.
An intimate group size so you can connect deeply with each other and with the places we visit.
Includes not just sightseeing but guided emotional reflection, journaling, community bonding, and culturally-rooted experiences.
Balance of structure + flexibility: fun, food, depth, rest, and surprises.

“[On this trip] I connected most with what I was searching for, which was my Khmer identity. Being Khmer again and being very proud to be Khmer. Instead of feeling rejected as a koun Khmer, we felt accepted as a koun Khmer.”
— Savandy

"As someone who grew up adopted feeling alienated from their culture, I was always yearning for a sense of self and identity. This trip not only welcomed me home, but it connected me to my culture and so many other amazing Koun Khmer.'
