They say everybody has a double somewhere out there… I got within a cat’s whisker of creeping up and surprising a guy at Chengdu airport many years ago because I thought he was my father and I actually met my double in Cambodia earlier this year – he even (almost) had the same name (Mark Bennetts vs Mark Bennett).

Even though one is a real person and the other is an artist’s impression, the similarities between this lovely Khmer girl from Kampong Cham in central Cambodia and the girl depicted in the street art we spotted in Shoreditch, East London are uncanny don’t you think??

 

Kampong Cham and Shoreditch …
