Me in Da Lat... so cold! |
Over the past four weeks (!!) I've had the pleasure of having two longer-term guests visit me in HCMC. Let's just start with the obvious:
1) Guests? Here?? It's not exactly a weekend camping road trip! No, these flights are bad boys that take an entire day each way and cost a lot of money. It's truly humbling for me to know that there are people that want to see me and experience Vietnam with me, in all it's contradictory, tropical, SE Asian glory!
2) New (and old) restaurants! New cuisines! Pictures of all the foods!
3) New travel destinations in Vietnam!! Pictures of ALL THE PLACES!
4) Now they're gone, and I have two weeks of relatively normal life again before my next trip (to the Philippines!), which will conclude my travels this summer. It's been a pretty good jaunt.

I also learned how to use Instagram, and I might be
