On our SE Asia trip we stumbled upon this amazing corner of paradise that has only recently been open for tourism! It still holds its cast away vibe with no roads or shops, just cute beach huts and small restaurants. After visiting the impressive temples of Angkor this was the perfect place to chill and recharge our batteries. The island is only 9...

The 1st thing before traveling to Iceland is to get prepared! Prepared to be absolutely amazed by the jaw dropping landscapes that take you from lush green fields to remote lunar scenery, or by the mighty powerful waterfalls!

We reached Hoi An after a short flight from Hanoi to Da Nang and a private van which we booked online at Daily Tours Hoi An Express.

After Hanoi, cruising the Ha Long Bay was next on our itinerary. It is one of the most impressive world heritage sites that we have ever been to. The entire area is misty and riddled with limestone ridges emerging from the water, resembling the back of a dragon that lies dormant in the bay. This is where the area takes its name from,...

I mentioned in a previous post that we planned a 3 months backpacking trip around SE Asia. Our trip started in April and the first stop, the lovely Thailand.
