With our things already prepacked, we wake up and have a breakfast already made by the hostel that we ordered last night (mine was pancakes with chocolate sauce and bananas), and go 20 seconds down the street to the Gibbon Experience building to check in and drop off some of our stuff that we won’tContinue reading “Day 9 – Gibbon Experience Part 1”

Although slightly earlier, there wasn’t much special about this morning. Wake up, get ready, grab some breakfast at then hotel, then catch a ride. The ride however, would be taking us about 1 hour out of town over to the Kuang Si Waterfalls. The roads around Laos aren’t exactly stable, and the would be theContinue reading “Day 7 – A Trip To Kuang Si Falls”

We wake up in decent time to go grab some breakfast and visit the morning market. The market had lotContinue reading “Day 6 – Exploring Luang Prabang”

We pick some up, then get some breakfast at the buffet in the hotel, beforeContinue reading “Day 3 – Expedition Through Lan Ha Bay”

We couldn’t tell last night, but the view from the hotel in South Korea was actually quite nice, overlooking the water and sunrise. The hotel had provided some complimentary chocolate and instant coffee, so I went about combining them to make a budget mocha for the morning. After packing up and showering, we caught aContinue reading “Day 2 – The Organized Chaos of Hang Da Market”

8:30 – Wake up 9:00 – Breakfast 9:30 – Depart to the airport Nothing new to start off, though this will set my personal record for the longest time spent in transit. Roughly 24 hours from departure until we can toss our luggage to the side in a hotel on the other side of theContinue reading “Day 1 – First Night, Wrong Country”
