Day 88: Today I Woke Up in Nyaungshwe, Myanmar.

Day 88: Today I Woke Up in Nyaungshwe, Myanmar.

Day 82: Today I Woke Up in Mandalay, Myanmar.

Having spent less than 48 hours in unimpressive Yangon, one of Myanmar’s biggest cities, and while still processing my experience in China and feeling fed up with big cities, I decided to move on to the smaller sized town of

Day 75: Today I Woke Up in Yangon, Myanmar…

…starting a new chapter in my traveling adventures. China belongs in the past, and yet the experiences I had there still linger and I’m finally moving out of the fog. My month in China was full of extremely good food

Day 59: Today I Woke Up in Guilin, China…

…recovering from a cold I caught a few days ago at my last stop, Fenghuang. Since I rarely get sick it took me a whole day to realize the symptoms I felt were not a simple dehydration. Once my body

Day 55: Today I Woke Up in Wulingyuan, China…

Day 55: Today I Woke Up in Wulingyuan, China…

…a small town that gets lots of tourist traffic because of its proximity to the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. The park, which is just one of the seven in the greater area, became popular to the West when parts of

Day 49: Today I Woke Up in Xi’An, China.

Day 49: Today I Woke Up in Xi’An, China.

Today marks my first week in China, although it feels as if way more days have passed. In the past week I spent 4 nights in Beijing, 1 on a train, and 3 in Xi’An. Knowing that I sound so

Day 39: Today I Woke Up in Paje, Tanzania.

Have you ever been to a place for more than a week and still got the giggles when thinking about where you are? That’s me right now. (One of the first pictures I took upon arriving in Paje, and the

Day 28: Today I Woke Up in Tehran, Iran.

Day 28: Today I Woke Up in Tehran, Iran.

Having spent almost 2 weeks in Iran – time that flew by way too fast – I find myself getting all pumped up and ready for my next destination. But before I move on, it is important for me to

Day 24: Today I Woke Up in Yazd, Iran…

…and after breakfast I got into a bus to Esfahan with Benny, the 65yo Malaysian guy I met in Shiraz and we “adopted” each other: he does the haggling with the taxi drivers and the shops keepers – as all

Day 20: Today I woke up in Shiraz, Iran.

This is my 3rd day in the country, and the second city I visit. Crossing into Iran was mostly time consuming rather than difficult – it demanded bringing paperwork that was unnecessary, and since I arrived at 12:30am the employees
