The Best Village Experience is in Luang Namtha, Laos
Crammed in the back of a local minivan in a sea of Lao people, I dozed in and out of sleep while we crawled from the Thai/Lao border to Luang Namtha.

Flying Over The Grand Canyon // FLASHBACK FRIDAY
I’ve been to Arizona a handful of times over the past few years. What can I say, the red rocks and dry heat really do it for me. That, and sometimes a girl’s just gotta HIKE.
The Crazy/Beautiful White Temple in Chiang Rai
Amongst Thailand tourists, Chiang Rai typically plays second fiddle to Chiang Mai. Both towns serve as a base for treks through Northern Thailand; since I had chosen Chiang Mai for that, I wasn’t sure if I’d bother stopping in Chiang Rai.
Best of Southern Vietnam – Photo Gallery
The ‘Best of Vietnam’ photo gallery below is a collection of images I took in May 2013 while traveling in Vietnam. In 3 weeks of travel, I explored the southern half of the country: from Saigon to the Mekong Delta region and back, then on to the sand dunes of Mui Ne, the Dalat countryside and central highlands, central coast beaches, and tailor shops of Hoi An.

Let me set the scene for you:
February 2011. Stuck in a cubicle at a mind-numbing corporate job. I’m perusing Twitter, as you do to distract yourself, when I notice a slew of tweets from Airfare Watchdog, alerting their followers to a bunch of $200 roundtrip flights to Europe.
Local Living in Chiang Mai
I was on the fence about including Chiang Mai on my 2013 Asia trip itinerary, but when someone I know insisted on hooking me up with a family friend from there, my decision was made.
Insta-Thailand: Thailand by Instagram
I’m currently about halfway through my Thailand blog posts, having already written about my time in the Thai islands (Koh Lanta, Koh Kradan, Koh Phi Phi) and in Bangkok.
Big Island Hawaii // FLASHBACK FRIDAY
When your best friend/roommate comes home from work one day and, completely out of sorts, impulsively declares that she wants to book a flight somewhere – you say OKAY, where to?!
