Riding from Lang Pho Rang to the mountain town of Sa Pa!
Day 52! Wow, today I have successfully finished driving from Ho Chi Minh City to Sa Pa! The ride had a lot of ups and downs (mainly ups) and I’ve learned a ton while on the road! The ride may be over but Vietnam surely isn’t! I woke up at…

Riding the Ha Giang Loop from Yen Minh to Lang Pho Rang
Day 51! Another amazing day on the Ha Giang Loop! And another day of spontaneous planning and plan changing. I’ll definitely need a small break from riding once I get to Sapa but once I’m there I’ll have officially driven “all” of Vietnam! Pretty crazy to say! After a long…

Relaxing at Ba Be Lake
Day 46! I was exhausted yesterday so I tried going to bed early. But at 2:30am my stomach had other ideas. After dealing with a fun bout of indigestion, I headed back to bed… but the roosters had other plans as they decided it was time to start singing! I…

Driving from Hanoi to the beautiful lake of Ba Be
Day 45! It’s time to leave the city and head further into the mountains as I make my way towards the crazy loop of Ha Giang! I unfortunately didn’t get to say “see you later” to my friends in person. But I’m sure I’ll be seeing them all again soon…
