Laos was a gift, a bonus, an encore. Laos is not the end of our travels, but it kind of feels like the end of all the travelling. Laos is the last new country, the last country in which we’ll… Continue reading →
Travelling is not just sun, see, beach, beautiful attractions, great food. Travelling is learning about the horrible history of a country, hours long bus-rides across the worst roads to the next destination, noticing culture differences that are not easy to… Continue reading →
After a little under three weeks, we’re already leaving Vietnam. Vietnam is a country that caught me by surprise. A country that is not to be summarised in only a couple words. A country with wide diversity. Earlier, I wrote… Continue reading →
We’ve been in Vietnam a little over two weeks by now, and I think it’s amazing. It might sound crazy, but Vietnam is exactly what I needed. In general, I feel that countries in Southeast Asia are pretty much alike…. Continue reading →
