SOCIALIST REPUBLIC OF VIETNAM
Distance travelled: 3126km
Snakes encountered: 1 (non venomous, caged)
Modes of transport: bus (bloody buses), sleeping bus, speedboat, slowboat, hydrofoil taxi, riverboat, cyclo, bicycle, motorbike, train, airbus 320
Favourite places: Bac Ha, Hue, Hoi An, Mekong Delta
What we won't miss: 4am propaganda PA announcements, the rubbish, people trying to sell us everything (moto, massage, same same menus, boat trips, etc), trying to cross the road in Saigon, the scams, THE BUSES.
That sinking feeling: Paying through the nose (or the 'eye of the face') negotiating the normal price of a local bus for 20 mins and not paying 2 or 3 times the price because we are tourists.
