Hi Monique. Have just got your blog journal address and am slowly going through all your adventures. From what I have read so far (and it's only been a little bit) WOW what a time you are having. Enjoy the rest of your time. Take care and look forward to seeing you and hearing all about it. Cheers Irene.
go girl ! dear monique,sounds pretty exhausting and i thought i had a hard day at work! All in all, sounds like a real adventure. If it helps, could send over a plate of mums gniochi or lasagna just to get away from that soup! Anyway, keep up the good work (luv the photos) and take care!!!! love dom
lazy days allowed before 200km cycling tour Well, why would you bother getting up and working if you can have luxury accommodation for $1 a day (yeah a hammock is luxury)!
G'luck for the cycling tour... nice to read the updates. Ta ra! L
kenh nyu tian long? The crazy stuff that happens to you! Kinda funny but it's easy to laugh comfortably back down here :) Must've been damn scary experience, but all worth it for the chance to cycle there. Take care and keep up these incredible photos. Love, hugs!
all part of the adventure ! I think you should carry something on you for those 'surprise' stick times! It sounds great .. even the scam jobs frustrating as they are! This happened to me in Thailand!! Take care. You look great! xxx
Now thats what I call getting off the beaten track, it reads like a great adventure including a misunderstanding with the locals which results in being attacked. Good luck in Vientiane
You go girl! Monique, I am so amazed at your trip, not to mention a little jealous. Thanks for keeping us posted, but you'll have to show us all the photos and tell us all the stories on your return. It's great to hear that you're having a good time and meeting so many people, not to mention doing things I'd never have the guts to even contemplate. Keep up the good work. :)
hi monique Hi Monique - I've really enjoyed reading your blog. Looks like you are having a fantastic adventure. Keep up the good work!! love "cousin" jane
Hi Monique
Saying the trip didn’t start smoothly sounds like an understatement, but after reading the rest of your comments and seeing the photos you posted your trip sounds amazing and it’s just getting started. Dog on the menu sounds... interesting.
Hope you enjoy the climb

Have fun Hi there, just back to work after 4 weeks leave. Had a good time in Darwin. Glad to hear you are OK and having a ball. Take good care of yourself and keep in touch. Cheers. Sue xxx
Wow awesome post babe! photo of Hoan Kiem Lake is so special -- seems like from another world or time in history or something! and sounds like you've had all the nasty travel upsets possible here in your first week so wish you smooth operating from here ;)
Hey man! Hello Monique, was really surprised to see your email, I guess I just forgot that you had it. But I havn't forgotten that you're overseas having a marvelous holiday. Things here at SATAC are hotting up, I'm busy updating the web and giving QAM a massive formatting overhaul... Glad to see you are well and taking some great snapshots. See you soon in September... love Jenna.
Ups and Downs of travel Hi Monique,
I loved reading you blog...
Seems Vietnam is the place for losing or destroying cameras. Like you said, bad things are sometimes part of travelling, makes the good times even better!!!
I look forward to your next entry,
Dean
I have been dreaming of a trip to Vietnam ever since I returned from studying in Thailand 18 months ago. Now that I have finished University I have 3 months to travel before I start work!... full info
