Food here has been so good

Some very serious reading going on

Sending a whoooooole bunch of my postcards today. Can’t believe I did scribbled so many on this trip 😅

Am going to miss hotel breakfasts when we go home

Not sure why but Australia really has sub par papaya, guava and pineapple (at least what I can get). I’ve been absolutely going to town in Vietnam

Travelling through Vietnam has been one of the best food experiences I’ve ever had. Even for someone who doesn’t eat meat, there has been so much variety and it’s all been so good. And the amazing fruit (especially the mango and pineapple) really reminds me of growing up in Sri Lanka

Very annoying Australia doesn’t have much of a domestic drinking coconut industry. I could probably keep them in business by myself

Pretty sparkling day at the beach in Nha Trang

Catching up on painting some postcards from the trip

At what point do we get any company that even thinks about our private data to chip into a permanent identity protection subscription for everyone?

Sitting in a lovely space but struggling to finish reading this bio of Ho Chi Minh 😅

Starting to wonder whether Americans tourists sign some kind of contract when leaving their country, promising to speak as loud as possible during their trip. Having spoken directly to none in the hotel, we could probably take a decent stab at drawing their family trees and writing all of their bios

Not the happiest with this scribble, but I had to keep drinking cocktails to buy time to finish it. And my motor skills definitely weren’t the same at the end 😅

Less than 30kms to go in the final overnight train of the trip :(

Bought so many stamps the post office ran out 😂

Escaping the Huế rain in a lovely bar :)

Rain rain go away

Rain rain go away

I do not understand why someone would start a blog (fantastic! more please!) in the 2020s and not include an rss feed…

Good morning from the sleeper train somewhere north of Huế

Last full day in Hanoi :(

Temple of literature also lovely. Especially in the heat. Hanoi is just great generally imo

Water puppet theatre in Hanoi is amazing
