If you wanna float, we can float away. If you wanna fight, we'll be fighting.

Vietnam
Ngày 3

Took another one hour bus ride, this time on a minibus to a gigantic market that caters to both tourists and locals alike, selling goods ranging from handwoven dresses, bags, soft toys, calligraphy etc.(basically things that didn't caught my attention hehe, but it was still an interesting experience)





I just love this photo, the communist poster in the background simply transports me to some sort of a warped dystopia. (Vietnam is still largely communist even though it has adapted over the years, currently possessing an open and free-market economy)

Then we had lunch and were up on the bus again to travel to another village, where I got to know a really friendly Korean girl with her mum and bro after she dropped her phone onto the ground as well as a French dude.



Shy pup.


Mooooo

Neighhhhhhhhhhhhhh





Where Vietnam meets China.

We were transported to the China-Vietnam border before we were sent back to the terminus where we had to wait 4 hours for the evening sleeper bus to bring us back to Hanoi.
Ate dinner for an hour then used the wifi hehehe that's why I love meal times, all the cafes and restaurants we went to had free wifi(of course street stalls do not have them)

Then the guide moved us to another location to continue waiting for the bus. There was this HK couple, an English guy and a French lady all waiting with us. The French lady was super friendly, and we all ended up talking for 2 hours until the bus arrived.



Apparently, she came from Paris but lives in the UK for work purposes, and she wanted to take a break by spending a month in Vietnam. We exchanged stories and it was all very lovely.

Sat next to her on the bus heh.



Very tempted to just stop here because I'm too lazy to do the other days.
