Mui Ne is a quiet little beach town along

Well, Cambodia was not on my original list
of countries to visit but several people told me that I have met along the way

Wednesday, I took a
tour to the Cao Dai Temple and the Cu Chi tunnels. It was quite a contrast to go to the temple in the morning

each other. The Cao Dai temple ... Read more >

I
arrived safely in Vietnam about four days ago. It was so nice to have a good airport experience since I had

manages. In Chennai, India it was so nice there were people ... Read more >
