Had been 4.5 years since landing back on aussie soil after our 6 months of travel around europe in a kombi. Inspired by others blogs and with the travel bug biting us hard once again we decided it was about time to start planning another vagabonding experience. The last 4.5 years had been jam packed with buying a house and solidifying our positions on the corporate ladder. But with the biological clock ticking and with us both just turning the big three-0, the road is calling once again! We have just set out for 12 months on the road from March 2nd 2014.

Great Post!
You guys captured Hoi An so well in this post. We found oursleves nodding at both the photos and writing and laughing at the "atrocious singing". It was great meeting you guys - enjoy the rest of your travels!

Glad you loved Angkor as much as us!
Doing awesome at keeping your blog updated, well done! It seems we did the same elephant mahout training as you guys and stayed at the same park and accommodation as we saw your name and signature in the guest book. Pretty funny as you were there only a week or so before us. Luang Prabang blog is next on our list! Safe travels, can't wait to see where you ended up after your Hoi An rental ran out.

Hoi An
Loving your SE Asian blogs and the photos in this one just remind me what a pretty and colourful place Hoi An was. After reading about your experiences with tailored clothing, was very glad I didn't go ahead and order a suit there after all though I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. Look forward to reading more about your adventures, take care and enjoy!
