Ascending dragon

The capital of Vietnam. As frustrating as it is full of life. It's easy to love, and it's exhausting.


Hanoi. Home to some of the best beer in Southeast Asia.


Where a lack of street food rice dishes is made up by a glut of meat and enough phở to drown a whale.


Where the chillies are hot and the temperature's hotter.


Where toddlers ride motorcycles. No, really..


A hectic place...


Where the traffic is more tangled than the electrical wiring.

Notice that no one's feet are on the ground. Traffic is moving.. in every direction.

An awesome city, where women carry their stores on their shoulders.


Where the artists at the Creative Oriental Crafts Kingdom still have no idea why every tourist takes a picture of their shop.


A city that we really enjoyed. And after a few days, we couldn't wait to leave.
