INDIA BOUND

Crunch time. I have played it calm, cool and collected for the last 3 months organising my India trip. People would ask "Aren't you scared to volunteer in India for 5 months by yourself, won't you get home sick?" my response being "Nah it will be fine" hmmmm well today i'm actually leaving and yes the thought of volunteering for 5 months in a random indian village somewhere in the mountains with complete strangers is rather terrifying come to think of it...Departing from the Western Suburbs (Wurbs) will be a bit of a change in every possible department however at the same time it is equally just as exciting!! Being the only Perth volunteer i will be flying han solo and i will meet my fellow Aussie volunteers at Singapore aiport tonight at 11pm looking extremely ravishing in hiking boots and long modest wear...

wish me luck!

Sapa, Ha Long Bay and Hanoi - Vietnam

My three favourite places in Vietnam! Definitely do the overnight train trip to Sapa/Ha long bay! We went with Kangaroo café tours who were cheap and we spent the week with a bunch of amazing travellers! Hanoi the capital, was awesome with it's French colonial architecture and countless museums such as Ho Chi Minh's tomb. Personally i would skip the south (e.g Ho Chi Minh City) if it meant seeing these three amazing places!
