What an amazing time we had in this fantastic country! 1 month to travel from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh. Also Stopping of at Halong Bay, Hue, Hoi An, Nha trang and Dalat.
First impressions of Hanoi and Vietnam was that it was very confronting, busy, basically chaotic. We wondered is this for us? After the jet lag wears off you start to realise just how kind hearted the Vietnamese are, never angry, never yelling at there kids. Happy people!
Halong Bay is out of this world, stunningly awesome. Hoi An was our favourite, relaxed town and close to some great beches, even though we stayed in some guys backyard and he understood no english what so ever. For $5 a night we both won!
The difference in scenery is unreal, old villages like Sapa to wonderful beaches, then old french colonial towns like Dalat to Metropolises like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh. It was a fantastic trip, lovely people, lovely environment and what every backpacker loves, cheap beers!
