We arrived into Nha Trang at 5am after we were woken loudly by the train attendant. I was half asleep when we arrived. We had to hang out in one hotel room until 9am and were shattered so we all fell asleep like sardines in one bed. Once we woke up ready for the day to start we went to have a beach party on a secluded beach, it was absolute paradise far from anywhere. On our way there we stopped to pick up fresh clams and mussels. Despite how early it was whe...

After a very long seven hour bus journey this morning (which I slept for most of) we arrived in Ho Chi Minh City. One thing I have noticed in both Cambodie and Vietnam is that you can't seem to walk down a footpath without having to go on the road. So basically it's not a footpath at all because everyone and everything is out on the footpath or it has just turned into mud and is impossible to walk on. My initial impressions of Ho Chi Minh was Chaos; scooters ev...

Today was one of my favourite of my trip so far... Started with a bit of a coach journey in the morning to the Vietnam border. This was a very small border crossing consisting of tiny tin sheds. We arrived in Chau Doc (a small city near the border, on the river Mekong) late afternoon. Straight onto a boat trip along the Mekong. This was the higlight of my day, travelling on a long boat through the floating market, the stinky fish farm and to see a small village...

The day started with a 7am departure and a journey on a hot packsed bus with cheesy kareoke videos to Sihanoukville. The teeny hangover I had this morning potentially made this journey a whole lot worse. We arrived in Sihanoukville at lunch time. First impression were that it seemed like a nice chilled beachy place. The hotel was really chilled, and I could definately see us having some fun here. Tonight we had a seafood BBQ on the beach. It was delicious, the o...

We had a nice lie in at Siem Reap before boarding a local bus to Phnom Penh at lunchtime. This was an uncomfortable 7 hours journey on a loud bus, they beep at absolutely everybody. Phnom Penh is the capital of Cambodia, still in slow recovery from when the Khmer Rouge communist party tore the city apart in 1975. We arrived about 7pm to our hotel. It appeared to be a very lively city and a bit more modern to Siem Reap. We had a pretty chilled out night here aft...
