k, so the WEIRDEST thing just happened to me and I had to come here and write about it: I was eating dinner at the best restaurant ever in Hoi An, Cafe Des Amis (if ever you're in Hoi An please eat there, it's more expensive than anywhere else in town but 100 times better) and in walked 2 people I kinda recognised but I kept eating cuz there was so much food in front of me I had to keep up. Then one of them says to me, "are you from Canada? I think we've met before." and I look [View Full Entry]

okay, so I feel like I need to make amends after my previously totally lame blog entry sadly I try to compose witty things in my head previous to actually writing them down so that these things are way boring for anyone who bothers to read them alright, so I remembered some funny/weird things from my road trip in the highlands: we were eating pumpkin soup and I said "in Canada we make pie out of pumpkins" response from my Vietnamese motorcycle driver: "men NEVER cook in Vietnam" .... huh? at one place we stayed I was asking this German guy [View Full Entry]

Hey all after my intense day in Saigon I did another semi-intense day where I got to see tunnels people hid, and basically lived, in during the war. it got a little claustrophobic but I wanted to get a feeling for what it must have been like so I persevered. loads of people bailed early (wimps) but I could understand when the guy ahead of me, who must have been like 6'3" ducked out. and they even made them about double the height so that tourists wouldn't have to crawl in the dirt. that night I met up with Si Heng [View Full Entry]

my title has absolutely nothing to do with my blog, I just thought it was wity. I want to start, not at the beginning, but at the part that is most present in my mind. Today I went to the War Remnants Museum and it made me cry. I won't go into too much detail, but there are many many photos and I remember thinking "who would want to photograph this?" and then I teared up. Of all the things I have seen on this trip I think this is the thing I saw that made me feel the most, so [View Full Entry]

so, still not actually in myanmar but blogging as if i am... I left off at Inle Lake I believe, we went on the boat cruise and saw how the people there make everything from scratch like bark paper and dyeing and weaving and then saw some long necked women, it was interesting. Adeline and Vincent saw some cats jumping through hoops at a temple but i had to pee and accidentally missed out on the action. the next day we rented bikes to ride out to a hot spring and seeing as I'm terrile on a bike Vinnie laughed and [View Full Entry]

okay, so my location is a lie but I haven't been able to blog since the last time I was in Bangkok and I wanted to have Myanmar light up on my little map... anyways, so I'mma gonna try to start a synopsis here but I might lose my steam after I'm done telling all about our time in the country that won't let me use my email or blog so I got into Yangon and met a Dutch girl and a Peruvian girl at the airport and we decided to share a cab into the city so I could meet [View Full Entry]

haha for puns! haha for being inappropriate! anyways, so I didn't find about the scariness in Bangkok until mere hours before I was to head for the airport, I sucked it up and boarded the plane. There were many many empty seats and I can only assume that this is due to people being cuckoos (has anyone in this family even seen a chicken?) for getting blown up. I got 2 seats to myself and slept pretty much my whole flight. When I got in I got a cab and headed straight to the Myanmar Consulate, which was closed until tomorrow. [View Full Entry]
