Chiang Mai, Thailand - Pt. 2

Ahh, the final leg of our trip! We spent most of the last two weeks relaxing and getting into the groove of Chiang Mai.

Chiang Mai, Thailand - Part 1

We have rented an apartment here on the outskirts of Chiang Mai for 1 month.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

I haven't been able to connect with this big city, abbreviated KL, as it feels just like every other one. The main attractions here are shopping and partying, although being caught in possession of drugs (even marijuana) carries a mandatory penalty of death by hanging. Most people here speak enough English to understand, even if I have to listen intently to pick out words through a heavy accent.

Da Nang, Vietnam

Finally, a less touristy, medium-sized city with a sizable college student population!

Hoi An, Vietnam

Hoi An is essentially a tourist trap... and that's about it!

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

A week of short-term traveling finally caught up to me and I was a bit depressed and overwhelmed. Without my routine of cooking, working out, meditating, etc., I felt lost and directionless, especially since I'm still working through my graduate school/career plans.

Siem Reap, Cambodia

No visit to Cambodia is complete with a visit to the main tourist attraction - Angkor Wat which is an ancient Khmer and Buddhist temple complex built by the king in the 12th century.
