For about half a year now I have been knowingly waiting for the day when we start our journey. Every day I have been reading a little bit about the countries we are going to visit. Altough on the road most of the plans propably might not happen it still has been lot of fun planning the trip.

My first trip as an adult was with my friends to Thailand but otherwise I have never been in this part of the world. With great interest, and some envy, been reading at about travelling there from friends’ blogs about surfing at the beach in Australia and climbing a mountain in Malaysia. 

Now everything should be packed. Both of us have about 15 kilos to carry. Tent, sleeping matress, sleeping bag, trangia, 5 pairs of socks and underware, 3 t-shirts, fleece, jacket, trekking pants, shorts, towel, swimsuit, mankini, trekking shoes, cameras, tablet, hygiene equipment and a hammock. 

Our journey begins in Vietnam in the capital Ho Chi Minh. We first fly to Doha Qatar for 6 hours and from Doha to Ho Chi Minh for 8 hours. We will stay one night in Ho Chi minh and then fly to Hoi an. Staying in Hoi an for a few nights before we start our way up to Hanoi where we have to be in two weeks.

Waiting the most: treks from each country. Especially in Nepal,  New Zealand and Chile.

Waiting the least: spiders and mosquitoes
