Voyage of discovery

Antonio Graceffo is irrepressible. He will try his hand at everything and anything. In recent months he's trained to become an emergency medical technician in the Philippines, and that was after spending the preceding five months with the Shan State Army rebels in Burma for a film, In Shanland, documenting human rights abuses of the Burmese government against ethnic minority people. Better known for his martial arts activities, he's travelled throughout Cambodia and those travels have just been published by Gom Press as an e-book, available online for under $10, in Rediscovering the Khmer. It should also be out in paperback in October. His first Cambodian book, Letters from the Penh, a mix of journalism, diaries, and short stories, has never found a publisher. His second book began at Angkor Wat, and included hiking, bicycling, riding elephants, fighting, and scuba diving his way around the country.
