Cooking class day. We got up at 7am for our cooking class, everyone in my dorm was asleep so it was a little difficult to get ready, but I made it in time for the free breakfast, which is all that matters. The trip started with a walk around the food markets, where we got all the food we would be cooking with later, the women in the meat market were nuts, literally just hacking away at these huge animals. Once we had purchased our food we went on a 40 minute boa...

Today is the day I became a fashion designer, I am having clothes made for me!! I am getting a co ord and a playsuit and I am bloody excited. We spent hours in the shop choosing what we wanted.

The journey at first was relatively ch...

Today we went on a tour to see the caves in phong nha. First we went up in to the mountains and saw a temple which was created in honour of those who died creating the ho chi min trail, their average age was 20. Then we went to paradise cave, which was absolutely beautiful. All the limestone in the caves looks like it can't have been made by nature alone, someone must have carved them intricately. The walk up was a steep one, but I was rather impressed with the...
