After yet another over night bus trip we arrived in Ho Chi Minh, otherwise known of as Saigon. We arrived really early and the guesthouses were really pricey for Asia. We found a really nice place after looking at a few dodgey crap ones. I had to lug my bag up 4 flights of stairs which wasn't the nicest experience but at least the place wasn't ridden with cockraoches! We didnt want to waste our first day there so after stuffing our faces we went to the Vietnam Wa...

After the sweatiest most awful night bus we arrived at around 6am in Nha Trang. The promise of sunny weather and a nice beach..we all couldn't wait as the weather had been utter poo for the whole time we'd been in Asia. once again none of us had been in the mood to go trekking around too much for accomodation and quickly found a clean and tidy guesthouse called 'My Dung'. ha ha. I had been feeling sick for over 2 hours and was glad to be able to run to the room w...

The bus stopped outside a guesthouse and James and I jumped off to check it out..as you walked just passed reception there was a swimming pool..we were sold already! The room was nice but quite expensive ...

We took an over night bus from Hanoi to Hue. The roads were so bumpy I thought that I was at flippin' Alton Towers. They just have no road courtesy, all night you hear BEEEEEP BEEEP and lights flashing.. you spend the whole time concentrating on praying that you're still alive when you reach your destination rather than trying to sleep! I was awake from about 5am when dawn was breaking and the scenery was staggering. Bright green fields with people working on th...

Hanoi is the craziest place on Earth! Upon arriving into the city it was how I imagined Bangkok to be...it was mental! People driving on Mopeds with washing machines strapped to them.. cars and people doing whatever they liked! It was a real culture shock.. I didnt actually think that i would be able to make it out of the place alive! Stephanie and I got a cab to the place where the others were staying. The journey in the taxi was ridiculously scary and my life f...
