Hot and humid. That’s what I get for planning a trip to Asia in the middle of summer. This whirlwind itinerary took me through 4 countries – Taiwan, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand… with no stops at any beach resorts!
Despite the heat and a few tourist-packed locations, the sights, the food, and the company definitely made it worthwhile. Especially with World Cup fever in full swing – there’s nothing like cheering on with the Brits, Spanish, Aussies and Koreans!
