Dagaetch
In 2015 I took a break from real life and traveled for 6 months!
After several delightful days in Laos, I flew to Hanoi. Vietnam ended up being my second favorite destination of the entire trip. In addition to the food (coming next post!), as a country, I experienced an…energy to the people. I had some great conversations with strangers, felt very encouraged and positive about most of the people I met, and really just had a fantastic time.

Hanoi is a fascinating, intense, and somewhat overwhelming city. The capital of Vietnam, tourists will spend much of their time in the Old Quarter, with small streets, old buildings, and enough noise and traffic to shock your senses. Outside of this area the city seems to be like any other, with office buildings and people living their lives. The Old Quarter is heavily focused on tourist activity, with countless souvenir shops and cheap knock-off goods. However, it is also home to the vast majority of tourist housing, and the best food in town.
