In Dalat

Ok..I am tired now but so proud I made it. I had a 19 hours bus trip from Hoi An (Cetral Vietnam) to Dalat (The south, mainland). After this long trip I didn't really want to walk around and find an hotel so I accepted the deal I was offered  in front of the bus station.. 8 dollars per night.

This small city is situated on the mainland, close to the mountains. The weather is so different than all the other places I've been so far in Vietnam. It's kind of chilly, and after more than a month I will have to get out of my backpack long trousers and trainers ( I will miss my havaianas for couple of days). The locals..as many little towns in south Vietnam, are really friendly..even if their English is not so good ( all they can ask you is where you come from..then the conversation end). My plan was to find a Easy Rider and paying a day tour around the countryside with him. I had someone in my mind, a friend's recommendation..but as I couldn't reach him by phone I met a fantastic guy at my hotel that not only offered me a good price but showed me all the good feedback on FB and Couchsurfing websites. So I said...let's just do it. Tomorrow I will be an Easy Rider for a day ( I mean..he is..I will be just on the back of the motorbike enjoying my day).

I will upload many pictures dear followers.
My trip down Vietnam is almost done.. I will be in Saigon by the weekend.

Lots of  love,
Andrea
