Flying into Luang Prabang in Laos is watching a dream unfold. The desire to see this country has been brewing for twenty years, and the sight of the lush green hills rising sharply to our plane brings a smile to our faces. Fabulously beautiful place.... Read more >

This is a landscape full of hardship and splendour. Toyota Camrys and donkey carts. In Phnom Penh we stayed where the queen stayed for $20/night. Rats and squalor share the block with the Royal Palace. Dirt, grime, litter, stinking sewers, begging ... Read more >

Ahhh...Nha Trang. The airport is 35km south of town but that gives us a lovely drive with beach glimpses along the way. What luck, we're dropped off two blocks from the hotel we wanted! 8th floor view over the beach, ocean, hills and city...just great! ... Read more >

13 Emperors called Hue home and the treasured buildings left behind for us to understand them are a Unesco World Heritage Site. Deservedly so. We caught a glimpse of these powerful leaders through their elaborate tombs built by and for them. Why the ... Read more >

Danang's riverfront promenade welcomes those fresh from the Hanoi moto scene and leads us quietly along the banks of the Han River to the magnificent Cham Sculpture Museum. This is easily a major highlight of the central coast of Vietnam with a brilliant ... Read more >

Hanoi is a buzz of bleeping motos and a flurry of activity everywhichway! We loved it. Nestled down a narrow alley tucked 5 floors above the street, we come and go to the streets below for superb 50cent Pho and the fun of it. Everywhere in Vietnam ... Read more >

Walked the bridge into Vietnam today to discover a country of quieter people. Many more smiling faces than China and NO SPITTING! Yayee! There are also way fewer smokers here than China...but with the behemoth Chinese super-highway being built to the ... Read more >
