Luang Prabang Starts Here

I know from personal experience that your first impression of Luang Prabang can last years.

A slow boat down the Irrawaddy River between the city of Mandalay and Bagan, which is famous for its 2,000 temples.

Democracy, freedom and where to draw the line between tourism and voyeurism in Myanmar.

It’s not that you will visit one city and won’t visit the other; most tourists end up going to both at one point during their trip.

With just three days in Krabi province, you can experience a truly wide range of the best beaches in Thailand, among the Kingdom’s other treasures.

For a long time, I was agnostic about both Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.

How many days in Kuala Lumpur you spend relates directly to how much you’ll enjoy your trip (or not).

Raja Ampat is far, even if you start your journey toward it from within Indonesia.

Although my trip started stressfully, I look back fondly at all the things to do in Da Nang—and outside the city as well.

This is Paradise, or as close as I’ve ever come to it.
