From Saigon we travelled inland to the highland region of Dalat. Apparently the mountains around here are really beautiful (we did catch a glimpse of them from our bus) but we never made a special trip out to see them. We got distracted by the food and ... Read more >

Ho Chi Minh City (herafter Saigon) is a real shock to the system. We had thought that our weekend in Bangkok would be a nice way to ease us into the SE Asia experience, but realistically NOTHING could have prepared us for the sensory assault that is ... Read more >

We spent two weeks in Croatia, and we would rate it as our favourite Eastern European destination! Reading the lonely planet we were a bit worried about Zagreb - it said that may people don't like Zagreb immediately, and we had too little time there ... Read more >
