Mine and Em’s month of adventuring around Cambodia and Vietnam began with a visit to Siem Reap in Cambodia where we saw more than our fair share of temples.
We also visited the Killing Fields and S21 Museum in Phnom Penh
We took the night bus over the border to Vietnam.
Starting in Ho Chi Minh, we discovered that pavements have a very different meaning, crossing the road always held a fun risk of whether you’d make it across alive, devouring my favourite meal in Vietnam (a seafood tom yum hotpot), being glam on a rooftop bar, floating down the Mekong Delta and taking a very long coach ride over to Da Lat.
The Secret Tour with Ron was one of the highlights in Vietnam!
Jess joined us in Nha Trang, where we ate a ton of food, ran around a waterpark and sunbathed at the beach.
Our next stop was Hoi An, where we met the lovely Yeter, learnt to cook a delicious Vietnamese feast, had drinks on a boat and sunbathed a bit more.
Jess left us in Hanoi while Em and I continued to be blown away by the incredible views on Cat Ba Island and hiked A LOT in beautiful Sapa before we headed our separate ways.
August 2016 was definitely my favourite 😉
