Preparing for the Ho Chi Minh Trail

My husband absolutely loves history and the way battles were fought to make a country what it is today, he revels in the strategy and way people must have lived, how they survived and the stories that have come from it… He finds it absolutely fascinating, exhilarating even. Almost like how I find goats never change the direction when they chew their food, absolutely remarkable!

All in all, we are taking a bus from Phnom Penh in Cambodia to Ho Chi Minh in the south of Vietnam, then catching a flight from Saigon airport to Van Don airport in the north of Vietnam. We will then catch a taxi to a very basic town called Cam Pha, where we previously lived for a year and is home to our trusty steed, “The Byke”, a Honda XR 150 which will be our means of transportation for the next 2 239km.

Our trip starts in T- 2days! Hang tight for daily updates, stories, pictures and videos.
