From the moment I arrived at the airport, butterflies filled my stomach. I was so excited for the unexpected, the people in Vietnam, the food, the culture and the breathtaking landscapes that Vietnam has to offer (I did some research beforehand). But also because I left my phone at home. I figured that this could either become a total bliss or a complete nightmare to travel without my phone.
I decided to start my trip at Hanoi and work my way further towards the north to a city called Sapa. After my visit to Sapa, I will travel more towards the south of Vietnam.
I love getting lost in an unknown city. When it comes to visiting a new city, I prioritize what I want to do and see. But experience taught me that how you go about doing that, can be a major difference between an average trip and a life-changing one.
This trip means a lot as I will reflect on the past year, the good and the bad. But more importantly the person I want to be. This trip is a gift from me to me, after going through a rough time. During this trip, I want to practice four natural sanctuaries: silence, solitude, stillness and simplicity. So I forgot about all the planning that I normally would do and tried to get completely lost along the way instead. While this might sound crazy it exposed me to experiences I would never ever imagined would come my way. And it has only been one week. As anyone who’s ever travelled to another city before knows well, all the planning in the world doesn’t mean you’ll be able to stick to your itinerary once the messiness of life comes into play.
