We were so happy to see French baguette, the first thing I ordered when we arrived into Luang Prabang was a tuna sandwich. I would most certainly not do that if we were not already travelling for weeks and I really missed good bread for breakfast. Red wine was still too luxurious for our pockets, but 600mL Beer Lao made …
LAOS: backpacking from the north to the south
We didn´t know if it´s Tuesday or Wednesday and we did not even care. We had all the time in the World, well at least until our plane left from Bangkok. We started our SE Asia trip in Cambodia, travelled through Vietnam from the south to the north, where we crossed the border to Laos. We had no plan where …
CAMBODIA: backpacking round trip
Cambodia was first up on OUR LONGER SE ASIA TRIP on which we also visited VIETNAM, LAOS and a small part of THAILAND.

Altogether it was about a month and we ate so many delicious new foods, the countryside is so …

We decided to rent a car and drive as much as it was possible, we did have to take a few boat rides though. The road took us from the capital to the historical city of Melacca …
BORNEO – 10 days in “the jungle”
We started our Malaysian trip by flying directly to the third largest island in the world, Borneo. The largest part of it belongs to Indonesia, the smallest part is a country called Brunei and all the rest is under Malaysia. The island´s biggest treasure is one of the oldest rainforests in the world, with an amazing flora and fauna – …
INDIA: south to north in pictures
They all say you either love it or hate it – in my case, it was clear I love it already when I was about 5 years old. Even though I was never actually there back then, I was crazy about all the shiny, rattling and glittering gifts my aunt brought me and I always wanted to visit this mysterious …
