My second solo trip, this time travelling Vietnam from HCMC to Hanoi in ten days! I’m so glad I’m on this trip alone, I got to see the things I want to see, eat as much and try as much as I want, sleep in very lousy rooms because I don’t care about room standards as long as I can sleep, stop at a location as long as I want before moving on.

Travelling alone means that you yourself have to take care of your own body. I still hate taking medications when I’m I’ll because I strongly believe in letting my body heal naturally. But yesterday, I have no choice but to force myself to eat because if I am delirious I can be targeted by mafia and drug traffickers. These are very real stories and they do exist in real life.
I learnt a lot these few days on how to sever my bondage with money and being street smart. Another most important thing that I realised I didn’t do right before the trip was to factor in emergency money and currency losses. But thank god I have enough ;D

Humans fail each other, and it hurts and grieves me to know that I still can’t wholly trust the closest people beside me. Humans have bad track record. I can only turn to god. You know it kind of sound religious, but I have experienced him so many times, sometimes on a daily basis, and I definitely cannot deny he’s living and taking care of me. Somethings just strangely put themselves into place during this trip as well. It’s kind of disheartening to say you can’t trust humans, but at least you can trust a divine being who has an excellent track record right?
