It has been a long time since we updated our blog, but here we are again hihihih.
This post is about our journey back to the Northern Vietnam. The plan was to explore the North East this time, but the circumstances changed and we end up doing something completely different.
We left Hanoi very late this day, cycling west towards Hoa Lac.
