Destination - paradise

A leap into the unknown Vietnam

Living in crazy atmosphere of New York I decided to spend my summer in different environment. I have not been backpacking before and I was not really sure what I signed up for. When I was just about to start my 'little' trip I did not expect it would be such an adventure. The places I have seen, the things I have tried, the moments I have lived... But the most important - the people I have met that made my time in Vietnam and Thailand the experience I will never forget. Unbelievable how fast 6 weeks go by and how much the group of people can bring to your life. That summer was the best decision I ever made! It changed my way of traveling forever! Why would you spend time at the hotels and in resort if you can explore the most exotic and diverse countries from the inside. You get to know the culture of local people, their habits and daily life. You try local food, but the real one not the one in touristic places and all that in the surrounding of the most beautiful places on this planet. I have been to many places but I haven't seen or experience anything like that. Vietnam stole my heart. I really hope to be able to come back soon.
