North Vietnam (3)

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 | By utegute | Views [41] | Comments [1]

It seems like a lot of people are pittying me for travelling on my own.. Very important question here is if I'm married and where my family is.. I learned the proper answer to that: "no money, no honey, no house, no car". Finally everybody ... Read more >

Hoi An and Hue - Vietnam

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 | By will | Views [161]

This week I entered Vietnam from Southern Laos, through the small border post of Bo Y, which has only recently been opened to foreigners. My bus then headed down highway 14 towards Da Nang following the valley of the PoKo River. I had heard that Southern ... Read more >

North Vietnam (2)

Sun, 25 Oct 2009 | By utegute | Views [53]

Back in Hanoi. I kind of escaped back here.. After Silke left I went up to Cao Bang, a tiny town in the mountains, close to the chinese border. Except me there was no (NO! NONE, ZERO! NADA!) western tourist there. And absolutely nobody spoke a word ... Read more >

Nha Trang - Hoi An - Hue

Sun, 25 Oct 2009 | By alistair | Views [67]

The first day is Nha Trang was a bit rainy but gave me a day to wander around the tourist zone and sample some of the restaurants, pubs and scenery. The beach in Nha Trang is beautiful - miles and miles of wide sandy beach with only intermittent coconut ... Read more >

The Vietnamese Central Highlands by motorbike

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 | By alistair | Views [43]

Delat is quite a small town, quite pretty, but not a lot to do in the town itself. I’d mainly come here as it is the base of a company called Easy Riders, who offer guided motorcycle tours all over Vietnam. I’d arranged a three day motorcycle tour ... Read more >

North Vietnam

Hanoi is most interesting! Especially the way they drive in town!! Thousands of millions of cars and motorcycles and just EVERYBODY is driving where there is a free spot. No rules at all. Still I feel pretty save on the back of a motorcycle-taxi. Amazing ... Read more >

See Ya Vietnam...OR "Photo You Buy!"

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 | By hannahandemma | Views [145] | Comments [3]

In one of the easiest decisions we've ever made, we have decided to change our flight plans and head out to Laos a couple of days early. I don't mean to be too hard on poor Hanoi, but it just really isn't our scene. Ha Long Bay was pretty cool however ... Read more >

Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) and the Mekong Delta

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 | By alistair | Views [47]

Ho Chi Minh City or Saigon as it is still referred to locally is a sprawling city of some 8 million people (and apparently 6 million motorcycles). It’s hard to say where the city starts or ends as the roads in this part of the world are inevitably lined ... Read more >

You Think You Know But You Have No Idea... OR Getting Pinched By Old Ladies

Wed, 7 Oct 2009 | By hannahandemma | Views [150] | Comments [2]

After a brief but fun 48 hour stop-over in S. Korea (where we went to a coffee shop and had our feet nibbled by fish - Weeds-style), we are finally in the 'Nam. Despite all of Hannah's extensive research (the woman takes OCD to a whole new "As ... Read more >

Hoi An, Nha Trang & Saigon (HCMC)

Tue, 6 Oct 2009 | By stackattack | Views [94]

So before I delve into more storytelling I forgot to mention one thing in Hanoi - I was at a cafe having breakfast and this random Vietnamese man was taking photos of me and wouldn't stop! I tried to ask what he was doing and all he said was that he ... Read more >

Hanoi & Hue

Thu, 24 Sep 2009 | By stackattack | Views [105] | Comments [1]

Hanoi just got more and more chaotic! The next day we went to Halong Bay which is about 3 hours north of Hanoi. The weather wasn't the greatest but we sailed on a 'junk' boat all day inbetween limestone rocks and walked through caves. On the way home ... Read more >
