I had 3 Weeks in Japan, so why did I spend 4 days in Niigata which is a relatively unpopular tourist destination while completely skipping popular cities like Hiroshima, Kobe, & Osaka?

As part of my 3 Weeks in South Korea I had the most amazing WWOOFing experience ever.

I decided getting out of Bangkok for 3 days would do me a bit of good to relax and de-stress, so Wednesday evening I booked myself a flight for Friday evening. Friday… Continue reading 48 Hours in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), Vietnam

Renting a campervan is a classic and popular option, but transportation types are a spectrum ranging from sleeping in the back of a station wagon to a full fledged RV… Continue reading New Zealand: Choosing a Campervan
Many people will tell you that trying to do both the North & South Islands of New Zealand in only 2 Weeks is ambitious. They would be right. Me and my partner in crime are indeed ambitious.
