Pakse

After much deliberation, I decided to travel down South Laos (despite the higher malaria risk 🦟).
I had to get a night bus from Vientiane to Pakse (which took around 12 hours).
On these interesting Laos sleeper buses you have to share a double bed with a stranger if you are solo travelling. I was lucky as I shared with a girl my age and we discovered we had a mutual friend!
I stayed at Sanga hostel in Pakse.
I only stayed one night to break up the journey down to Don Det.
I didn't like Pakse - it was quite dirty, and there was nothing to do if you weren't brave enough to drive bikes (me).
I used my one day there to chill/read/walk around/watch the sunset.
I left the next day on an early bus + boat to get to Don Det/4000 islands.Weiterlesen
