Vlog #16:<\/span> Contiki Big Indochina Adventure: Hoi An, Vietnam<\/h2>\n

httpvh:\/\/youtu.be\/AfEdFtqicf4<\/p>\n

Every time we stop\u00a0at a town in Southeast Asia that has a European flare, I get a little giddy inside. Maybe it’s the fact that I have never been to Europe and I really want to go.<\/p>\n

\"Hoi<\/a><\/p>\n

Due to a 3 hours plane delay getting out of Nha Trang, we had to rush through everything in Hoi An. I don’t believe I have ever been so efficient so early in the morning in regards to getting stuff done (GSD) —<\/em> the acronym we came up.<\/p>\n

Starting at 7:00am till 8:15am we ran half way across town and back – twice, to two different shops to pick up our custom clothing and jewelry items. That’s one thing these video don’t really show. There was A LOT of going back and forth, my suit had two different fittings and the rings that I got made had two as well. (Stay tuned for a separate, more detailed blog post on those).<\/p>\n

My Son Temples<\/h2>\n

\"My<\/a><\/p>\n

I love temples and architecture, but I must admit at almost 20 days into the tour and after the massive day that was Angkor Wat<\/a>, I was feeling a bit “templed out”. I really do hate myself for even thinking or saying that since I’ll most likely never seen these temples again.<\/p>\n

I think my bitterness was due to the fact that it was unbelievably hot and I picked the absolute worst day to do laundry and hence was stuck with only my black yoga pants to wear- Karma.<\/p>\n

Vietnamese Cooking Class<\/h2>\n

If you can recall I already did a Thai Cooking Class<\/a>; we’ll here is the Vietnamese Edition. A bit more chaotic then the Thai version as there was the option to buy alcohol during this class.<\/p>\n

Regardless, all of my food was edible this time around which is always a win!<\/p>\n
