First days in Hoi An — Goodbye Marcel

After a missed flight and a truly local experience in Hai Phong, we finally arrived in Hoi An. We ended up in a beautiful homestay with local people, who were incredibly friendly and made delicious banana pancakes 😄.

From all the places I’ve seen in Vietnam, this is definitely my favorite one. The town has a special flair to it, and reminds me a bit of Byron Bay in Australia. It’s a chilled, alternative, and at night quite romantic atmosphere. The beach is also beautiful, and it can be reached from the city by bike in 15 minutes.

Marcel left to meet up with Kira in Cambodia, so I’m traveling solo for the rest of the trips. Our adventures together were lots of fun (despite the continuously recurring bad luck), and I’m grateful to have such an amazing friend ❤️.Read more
