Hello again, Firstly thanks for all the blog love I've been getting, glad you guys are liking the blog. I'm just happy to share our adventures and some pictures. Anyways, last time it was Northern Vietnam and Halong Bay that amazed us, this time it was the central coast of Vietnam. There is an open bus ticket option here in Vietnam where you choose the number of stops along the way from Hanoi to Ho Chi Min City. The price ranges in the $25-$35 range. Which would be ideal. If you knew how many stops and where you were stopping. So [View Full Entry]

Oh my oh my, this place is beautiful! So where did I leave off last time I wrote in this blog? Oh right, the night before getting into Vietnam. Well, we got up fine and got on our early bus out of Phnom Penh. The bus ride was about 6 hrs and the funniest part was when we hit the border. We think they like to screw around with tourists, mainly because we were the only white guys on the bus. So they took our passports when we got on the bus and when we reached the border crossing we figured [View Full Entry]

Hello again! Well its been a little while since I last reminded you guys that we e still alive and traveling around Southeast Asia so I guess I should fill you in on what weve been doing. . . After our cultural binge in Siem Reap we decided to head south, way south to find some sort of sun and beach. The weather was promising heavy rain showers for the next 3 weeks but we decided to take a chance and head down to Sihanoukville. Sihanoukville is a small beach resort town on the ocean and seems to be one of [View Full Entry]

Hello again blog readers! Firstly, we are not dead! It seems though that all the areas around us are being hit hard: Vietnam (typhoon), Laos (flooding), Philippines (typhoon), Indonesia (earthquake), Samoa (earthquake), but Cambodia is doing ok. Well, we did have a little flooding... But first, we arrived in Siemreap after our super fun car ride. We got dropped off in the middle of town close to a one square block market called the old market. We settled for the first guesthouse we found, it just happened to be the best. It's called Fresh guesthouse; it had 2 beds, hot shower, [View Full Entry]

Hello again! So I guess I left the last blog off at the Bangkok internet cafe eh? Well that, as it turned out, was our little break in our trip. You see, we went back to the train station to catch a 6:40 train to Nong Khai, a mere 13 hr train ride away. But as our luck goes with Thailand transportation it ended up being 15 hrs. But it was alright, we each had our own pair of seats to curl up into a ball on and get some shut eye. There were also some very funny and entertaining people [View Full Entry]

Sooo, we may have lied a little to you guys in that last blog. See, it's Max and me we're talking about, we said we'ld plan for months before this trip. We got together, got distracted by this, that and everything and didn't really plan this trip. But that is almost the beauty of a trip like this, you see, we decided right after I posted the blog to wait on Cambodia and go down south in Thailand to find the beaches, and boy did we. We're on a little island called Ko Tao (turtle island) since it's an island resting [View Full Entry]

Hello people, I guess it's time to give you guys a little update on our little trip. Yes, OUR, I found Max! He's alive and well and now we can tackle this continent together! Woot. But I did have two and half random days in Bangkok till he came here. I can catch you up quickly. I flew in here faster than expected, my 13+ hr flight into Hong Kong turned into a 12 hour leisure trip, I slept for most of it, which was awesome and boring to talk about. Then my supposed 3 hr flight into Bangkok turned into [View Full Entry]

Hello! So I haven't written one of these blogs in a while, maybe it's because I haven't had a reason to since I stayed at home for the summer, but fear not! I am on the brink of my next trip! I'm actually flying away in about 6 hours to Bangkok, Thailand via Hong Kong and will be traveling around SE Asia with my friend Max for 4 months. Sadly this means you'll be hearing a lot less from Peter in these blogs, he's off to the 'real world' of work and school, and I get to have all the fun. [View Full Entry]

Bonjour, I arrived back from Madrid at 9am, and as I mentioned before, it was frightfully cold at 13 degrees in Brussels. I got my stuff back to my place, and then went out chocolate shopping for gifts for people back home. After stalking up, I went to visit my favourite ice cream place and my favourite durum place one last time. For dinner, I met Claude and two of her friends, whose names escape me right now, and we went to Skievlat Sablon, which is a restaurant that Anne had found randomly on the study tour. It became my favourite [View Full Entry]

Buenos Dias, I woke up early once again and caught the bus to Segovia as it would take less time than the train. As the bus was passing through the Sierra Madre Mountains, I saw the Valle de los Caidos. Franco had it built by slaves to commemorate his fallen soldiers. Shortly after seeing it, I arrived in Segovia. As I walked into town, I passed several very old churches, so I began to get the feeling of what was in store for me that day. I continued along the street into the city and I arrived at the aqueduct. It [View Full Entry]
