From Chez Beo Homestay I took the QL10 to Nam Định then further the QL39A and a few other QL’s towards Hai Phong. From there you have to drive over very bumpy and dusty roads to find the ferry. My Google girl was a big disappointment – she did not know nothing and was very…
Another day in Hội An – another day to go to the Old Quarter in the evening for some pictures. View from the bridge I had to walk over every day from the hotel to my food place View from the table. On the left the sugar cane juice maker I had this and the…
There are too many restaurants in Hoi An but for me Street Food in Vietnam is more interesting than a pumpkin soup with some Spanish starters. Why am I in Vietnam after all?? Did take a few pictures for you so you know what to expect if you ever stop here! One woman can carry…
The best time of the day to visit the Old Quarter is late afternoon. Make sure to pass by the wet market and look for a spot to sit for a while. Selling and shopping is still done like 20 years ago. On the floor or at stalls along the road or under the tin…
The first night on the train was not really good. Had booked the lower bed in a 6 bed compartment and there where only 3 of us. But at every stop somebody gets out and new people come in. Some only for one stop and some for a few. And the guy next to me…
Good morning Vietnam! Did check out of the North No 2 Hotel and walked to the motorbike place. On the way I had the usual breakfast: Coffee and a Baguette with juice. Last coffee in Hanoi before the trip The new Motorbike Then: surprise surprise – my bike was gone. Did not really understand why…
The days go fast when you do nothing and when you do something they go even faster. People arrive, become new friends and leave. Old friend come and go. The Pailand thing. It is still fresh in the night and the cats try to get some of the heat from last nights fire Bianca leaves…
Simona wanted to move on. Mae Hong Song was her next destination. We made a 3 day and 2 night road trip out of it. There was only one Honda 125 cc with semi-automatic at AYA. Over 70.000 km on the clock and really old. But better than nothing so we took it. Turned out…

Back to Bangkok from Udon. A day bus for the first time. There were a few movies with English subtitles so things were OK. Had the seat in the front with a great view. But not a lot of interesting things to see outside. The bus is at 17:00 in Bangkok – they told me….
Stuttgart Airport Bus Station. Since some guys with not too much brain decided to build a new train station we have now 3 different bus stations in Stuttgart. And they are all in the middle of nowhere. This one makes sense if you want to take a bus to the airport. But that is it….
A bit more than 4 months – over! Just like that – gone. So it was time to pack the bag again and take the mini bus to Bangkok for the last few days. Good Bye Sweety! Mitsos did arrive at the same day and since he can do nothing alone I had to go…
