SAPA / VIETNAM:
I had enough of that. Olivia took me by suprise to a travel agency with Andy and Vikie were she forced me to agree to a 2 day trekking tour. Can you believe this? 2 days walking in the middle of the tropical forest, up and down mountains on goat paths. I thought I would have collapsed. But luckly I survived and so did the rest of the group. We had the opportunity to meet with many different tribes that populate the region and got invited into their traditional houses. A lot of exchanges of curious looks from both sides. A true jump in the past and a great experience. I have to thank Olivia for convincing me to do it, I loved it. Today we both cannot walk but feel very relaxed. Check the shots.
