Well, here I am in Tuy Hoa, a small city on the central coast of Vietnam. I'm in the 'house' (its like a workshop with an apartment above it) of some random old people that I just met, stealing their internet. Actually its the house of the parents of the husband of one of the ladies that brought me here. My boss/tour guide, I guess. I came with her and her assistant, who think its great fun to hang out with a foreigner, and keep trying to give me food and drink! ...

Today was a pretty flat day. I was supposed to meet two of my classmates and see them off from the bus station. Anyway, we got mixed up. I tried to go to their guesthouse to see if they were still there, but the girl who worked there was being a little smartarse. She wouldn't let me in, still angry at me from the weekend when I kind of woke up everyone in their guesthouse (but that's another story). Saigon is a dangerous place to go for a walk. I was nearly kill...

I finished my TESOL course on Friday, and spent the weekend with a bunch of crazy Canadians, cracking terrible ya mumma jokes and improving my dancing skills. And now it's time to find a job!

It's pretty much a working holiday, all expenses paid, which is why I agreed to it. So after I get back to Saig...

Ok, a recount of Mui Ne and Monkey Island and everything between. Right, so last Friday night I took a bus up to Mui Ne, for the weekend. It was without doubt the best fun I've had in Vietnam so far. We hired motorbikes and just cruised along the coast for 2 days...and got pretty bad sunburn. It was my first time ever on a motorbike - yippee! I was a bit shaky at first, but I thought I went pretty dang good.I loved it so much that I plan on hiring a motorbike onc...

Tonight I had my first real 'authentic' Vietnamese culinary experience. A friend took me out to this massive Vietnamese buffet place (it was free, coz she had tickets from her brother's friend, who works there). They made me try all sorts of weird and wonderful 'traditional' Vietnamese foods, like..... duck fetus. No joke. My class was taken to a Vietnamese high school this arvo. We had to watch 90-minute demo lesson, which was pretty interesting. Vietnamese hig...
