When you are in Siem Reap visiting Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples, you will need to find some nourishing meals to refuel yourself after an active day. We will do a post about the city and what to do, so this post is solely focused on our favorite topic: vegetarian food! I was surprised […]
We spent the last portion of our tour in Vietnam in and around Hanoi. Everyone who spends any time in Northern Vietnam goes on the Halong Bay Tour, it’s a given. I’m sure you have seen the many amazing pictures of the karst formations popping out of the bay. Initially, we had planned to do an overnight […]
While in Bangkok for Songkram, we stayed for free (by using some of our Club Carlson points) in the Park Plaza Soi 18, which had the biggest room we had stayed in during the trip (our next hotel, the Conrad Cotai in Macau blew this hotel out of the water, more on that in a few days). […]

The amount of “tourist” activities we did could have fit into a four day visit, but we were happy slow […]
{We spent the afternoon at the waterfalls with Aurelien’s sister who put most of this post together for us.} Eastern Thailand is not going to be found on many tourists’ itineraries, except perhaps for a trip to the island of Koh Chang. Thus our visit to the Chantaburi area gave us a chance to see […]
At the end of our month living in Chiang Mai, we were a bit concerned that none of our other destinations would come close to matching the amount and variety of delicious restaurants we found there. Lucky for us, once we arrived in Udud it was clear that Chiang Mai had a worthy competitor. The […]
