Wild life and relax
When we realised that covid is not going anywhere anytime soon we decided to go back to Da Nang. Ho Chi Minh is a big town, with a lot of traffic and what comes with it - noise. Our apartment in Saigon was big and nice but a big downside of living in the town centre is that most of…

Sand everywhere – a house near the beach
The quarantine in Vietnam was at this point at full blast. Empty streets, nearly everything closed apart of a very few grocery shops, no cars or bikes on streets. This was the moment we wanted to move to our new bigger apartment… That was the problem. We were pretty sure that two white people with a huge suitcase and backpacks…

Saigon – 3 Oaks Hotel
Going back to Vietnam we knew right away we will want to stay a bit longer this time so we chose Ho Chi Minh City because it's easy to find an agency there to extend our visa. We decided to stay there for a week and move on to another city after our visas are done. We didn't do any…

We found this place very affordable and it even offered us some extra "features" that helped with saving money.

Series of unfortunate events in Vietnam
Our trip to Vietnam didn’t start well. We were so excited to go there we couldn’t sleep the night before. We arrived very sleep deprived and extremely tired. When we got to our Airbnb location, we couldn’t find the place because the building was brand new and there were no numbers or whatsoever there.

Bali, paradise with ants
Our adventure in Bali didn't start too well. Our host was supposed to pick us up from the airport. The problem was we didn't know how he looks like, he didn't know how we look like. He did have a card with my name on it, but we later found out it was written with a really thin red pen…
