Ive made my mind up im sure now! Vietnam is definatly my favourite place. Apart from being mugged by a ladyboy and having to pay the police off for nothing but to keep my passport, ive really enjoyed it. Been sand surfing down the dunes, partying, visiting the most beautiful places that look like they do in films. Still with the same group of 4 although going our seperate ways as im meeting with Carl in Phuket on the 1st December and we will all meet back up ...

There is lots to see and do here. The nightlife is really good and the group have expanded hugely!Im going to do a dive tomorrow (weather depending) and a boat tour round to see the different islands. The beach is lovely although the sellers are a pain. Feeling like my trip is going too quickly now and the more time passes, the more i enjoy it.

Met some really cool people in Hue. Did a motorbike tour to see all the temples and tombs which was good. Also met up with Edgey, Freya and Alex for some good nights out and a day on the beach before getting the bus to Hoi an for some real shopping!!!

Just came back from Halong Bay which i loved. It was beautiful but so hot. Came back a little red. Nearly spent the night on the boat as planned but met 8 great girls so changed and stayed in the hotel on cat ba island and had a great night out. Luckily i didnt stay on the boat. A few people had their bags eaten by rats! Just about to get the night train. Soft sleeper this time, to Hue
