Min lille pc og ny reiserute

Ja, dette innlegget skulle jeg jo egentlig ha lagt ut før jeg dro, men siden det ikke ble noe av får jeg gjøre det nå.

Mekong Delta

After crossing the boarder I could feel the difference between the two countries at once. It was as if Vietnam was more lively in a positive way of both countries. It was more people here and the country was more developed. Even so I was suprised that they spoke rather pore English. I thought they spoke better English in Cambodia than in Vietnam. I also thought that one month in Vietnam would not be enough. It was so much to see, and so much to do, the country had so much to offer. How could I fit everything I wanted to see and do in the one month I had a visa?

The Mekong Delta is the region in southwestern Vietnam where the Mekong River meets the sea. I wanted to go on a tour to see this region on my way to Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). So Irene and I booked a 2 day trip with a homestay with a local family. We were excited.

Goodbye Cambodia - Hello Vietnam

After some markets and The Royal Palace in Phnom Penh I wanted to go to Sihanoukville. But it was easier said than done. Because of a festival, everybody was going home to their families to celebrate their ancestors, and all the buses were full. My hostal tried to call the buscompany but with no luck. The buses were full the whole day and the upcoming day. I met a guy from The Netherlands who were going to Takeo to do some volunteering, and I was about to join him before I found a hostal that had a busticket.
