Vietnam
Vietnam: Mekong Delta
While in Saigon, I scheduled a tour to visit the Mekong Delta for a day. I wish I had the time to trek up to Sapa but alas, just this day trip will suffice. I booked it on viator.com for a very reasonable price. They picked me up early with a loud-mouthed sarcastic Vietnamese local […]
Vietnam: Saigon + Food with XO Tours
Riding & Eating with XO Tours + I spent a few days in Saigon or now officially called Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC). + On the first night, I knew I wanted to go around Saigon and get FOOD. I arranged a night food tour with XOTours.vn. It is a tour group of 6-8 young Vietnamese […]
Vietnam: Nha Trang + 26
I celebrated my 26th birthday at Nha Trang! We woke up bright and early to take some photos and to go paragliding. We strapped up and did a quick lap around the bay – it was fun and a nice way to start the day. Swimming at the beach and then going to the Vin […]

Vietnam: Halong Bay
Halong Bay…. clear blue skies and a gentle calm breeze. I couldn’t have asked for a better day to sail out here! The junk boat used to be white and looked like it had seen better days. The words “BIEN NGOC CRUISER” in fire red were placed across the entire side of it topped with […]
Vietnam: Hanoi
Hotel: Sofitel Hanoi I arrived in Hanoi around midnight so there was no time for sight seeing. After a quick steaming shower, I was off to bed for the next day. Unsurprisingly, it was got hot and humid early but I had a list of sites to see: Literature Temple, One-Pillar pagoda, the Quán Thánh Temple, Hoan […]
