It''s unfortunate to admit, but travelling through
Viet Nam can sometimes be hit and miss. As a fairly seasoned explorer,
I''ve had my fair share of blips on the itinerary, like Hai Phong or
"grim Vinh", which warrant at most no more than...
With around 57,000 travellers pouring into Phu Quoc
in the first quarter of this year, Viet Nam''s largest island is fast
becoming the gem in the country''s tourism crown.
Faced with Viet Nam''s chaotic streets, mind-numbing bureaucracy and
appetite for strange delicacies (dog, anyone?), it is easy for somewhat
uptight foreigners such as myself to underestimate the value of spending
time in this vibrant corner of Southeast Asia.
