Two certified open water divers right here! We are done — only took Jenia about a week. But the important thing is that we did it 🙂
We made an impromptu long weekend trip to Kentucky last week, and despite my complaints of how travel is exhausting – we had a blast.
Our first day in Hanoi – and it is love. At least with our hotel: Hanoi Culture Hostel. This is hands down the best price to value ratio that we have experienced first hand on this trip. The best bit is the balcony, of course, overlooking the Old Quarter.
Oopsies – stuck in the southern town of Trang after the central railway website system went down for the day. Ah well, lesson learned — if traveling by train in Thailand, do yourself a solid and buy the tickets in advance.
A visit to the Istanbul Archeology Museum is a must – fascinating artifacts dating back 5-6 thousand (!!) years ago, uncovered as recently as a few years ago when the city began construction of Marmaray rail link under the Bosphorous.
