Anyway, the first image one gets when the country Vietnam is brought up is probably an overpopulated, polluted country with bad water supply and about a billion motorcycles and cars racing about, accompanied by an orchestra of swear words. No wait, that's India.
Back to Vietnam. I'm sure that's the picture you would cook up in your mind. Excluding the motorbikes and swear words part, the rest isn't exactly true. For instance, you probably won't believe this but everyone in Vietnam is well dressed. From the hotel managers to the housewives, everyone has got on them furry coats and them high heels. I mean for a third world country you'd expect to see the usual slippers and China t-shirt but NOOOOO. Vietnamese women dress to kill. Literally, I mean their heels are so high and sharp, that the UN should ban them under the act of murderous apparel.
Thats one.
And that is the remaining million.
So that was for Hanoi, the city center of Vietnam. Filled with well dressed women and motorbikes. We spent the next day cruising along Halong Bay in some cruise ship. Its called the 'Opera Cruise' but for some reason there are no Opera singers on board and if you attempt to be one you get thrown off into the sea.
This wasn't that bad there. All we did was cruise and cruise and cruise and cruise some more. We stopped for a while at some floating fishing village thingy and went kayaking then we cruise and cruise all over again. You'd think that all that cruising would make us seasick and blue all over, but it didn't.
The scenery on the way was TO DIE FOR and super windy. And there was this OMG super hot Russian guy OMG on board with his girlfriend who bore a scary resemblance to Sara Bareilles. So I spent half my time humming Love Song and Gravity to see if she responded.
Just to clear out the previous myths.
THEY DO NOT SELL DOGS ON THE ROADSIDE LIKE POPIAH.
Yeah, thats all. Kam Ern ( Thats thank you in Vietnamese o.O )
