Yangon to Golden Rock

Yangon to Golden Rock Decided to take the train as I do love trains in foreign countries and opted for the “ordinary class” which consisted of wooden benches, open windows, open doors too where you can smoke and for the loo, just a hole where you can...

Pindaya - 22nd Nov

Pindaya - 22nd Nov Went to the meeting point and met the “other customers”, a German lady who was kinda stuck up the ass but kept laughing hysterically and 2 Swiss ladies who seemed more chilled out. The German one didn't seem that up for me jumping in...

Bago to Nyaungshwe

Bago to Nyaungshwe (Inle Lake) The next day I took a bus to Bago, where I wanted to catch a bus there to the north. All the buses going to straight to my destination were full so I had to do a bit of a detour journey, but hey I'm not at 5h close (dunno,...

Inle lake - Boat trip

Inle Lake - Boat trip If you go to Inle lake, well you have to go on a boat trip, which I did. It is very touristic but it would be silly to refuse to do it. I went with the Spanish couple with who I did the trek, we left early to avoid the crowds but...

Boat

Boat journey The boat journey really reminded me of the ones on the amazon, in South America. Same kind of boat, same atmosphere, same kind of vendors coming in and out, same kind of scenery apart that there were pagodas on the shore evry now and again....

Verdict Myanmar was definitely one of the best

Verdict Myanmar was definitely one of the best countries I've visited so far. It's got the scenery of Cambodia with its flat rice fields, random palm trees and buffalos. It's got the mountains of Laos, the smiles of Thailand. Amazing pagodas, Bagan's...

Cambodia

The train journey was pretty good, no problem there.However the 'passing the border' bit was a nightmare. Silly me using 2 passports! First they took me to a place where they did passport but for twice the price, I told them I needed a business visa so...

Bagan to Ngwe Saung

Bagan to Ngwe Saung...la plage quoi! The bus which was meant to pick me up at 5.30 from my hostel turned out to be 10 min early. Luckily I was in a restaurant in front of it and the owner of the guesthouse found me easily. So a bit of a panic, especially...

Bagan 28th nov

Bagan - 28th nov. So, clever me I decided to cycle for about 1h30, right to the other side of the area of Bagan during the hottest part of the day (I'm full of good ideas like that!). I thought that the takana, the mud on my face, will make a kind of...

Yangon 13-14 Nov

Yangon 13-14 nov It was amazing to fly into Yangon as we could see the whole countryside with golden stupa scattered everywhere. Found a couch with CS, had to wait for the guy, Sushi from Japan, (yes that was his name!) in a 5 stars hotel. Was nice but...
