Lesley, we're sorry, but Louise has significantly increased her backpack diffs...... What can we say? Saigon has an alarming amount of beautiful trinkets that we simply must own. So, today we got up and left our hostel, having received a tip from friends a day ahead of us about a hostel that included free breakfast and dinner in the rate. Being that we were already paying $6, we thought we'd give it a shot. With erin as navigator (ish) we set off with rucksacks...

Hello from your three little Miss Saigons! Arrived safely in Ho Chi Minh City/ Saigon and are currently happy and settled in a hostel at a slightly steeper price of $18 a night (although we did turn down rooms at $20, $26 and $30, go us!)

Rushing about, we stumbled into the tuktuk about 5:35am and started the drive, at about 45miles an hour to try and catch the sunrise...

It is the 31st of March, 3pm local time, and we hope you are all well, wherever you're reading this from. Currently, we're sitting in our hostel in a bustling Phnom Penh using the free and remarkably slow internet. We always feel dirty here, even when we shower twice a day. The heat has already surpassed any of our expectations and we look forward to standing under a cold shower which at home would leave us with hypothermia, but here leaves us mildly refreshed if...
