Nha Trang is yet another popular beach resort for the "blank faced, unfriendly Russians" - quote from a local Easyrider. Easyriders are usually old war veterans, now tour guides with motorbikes, and are often very friendly with good English. We only stayed in Nha Trang for half a day, waiting for a bus, which was meant to be a train, to Da Nang. Unfortunately the train we were supposed to be getting was fully booked, only the hard wooden seats were available - wh...

The road to Dalat from Mui Ne was insane...the windiest roads, if you can even call them roads, as often most of the road didn't exist! A lot of huge pot holes, which could even be bomb craters! But absolutely stunning views across the mountains, rice fields, and coffee plantations. We arrived just after sun set and were not expecting to feel the cold! We were dressed in our shorts and t-shirts, whilst the locals around us were in jeans, jumpers, coats, wooly...

After a good 20 minutes, a lady on our tour had found some locals selling drinks outside their home, a couple of hundred me...

After a toxic 16 hour bus journey, we arrived in Ho Chi Minh City aka Saigon, high as a kite! The bus we took from Phnom Penh was falling apart, and stunk of burning engine oil. Ho Chi Minh City hasn't been officially called Saigon in more than three decades, although the name Saigon is still widely used by locals and tourists alike. The communist government changed the name of the city to honour the nation's great nationalist leader in 1976.We stayed in ...
