Heavy coastal heat before even reaching the taxi line — the walled city, Getsemaní, and Playa Blanca.
An uncomfortable journey that turned out worth every hour — the salt mirror, jeep tours, and the border crossing everyone talks about.
A trip booked and canceled more times than admitted — old town streets, the rotating bridge, and a day trip out to Sopot.
Never quite warmed up to egg coffee, but tried it anyway on the first evening beside the train tracks — Halong Bay, Ninh Binh, and Train Street.
The trip exhaling after Ubud’s rice terraces and one too many temple queues — no cars, bike loops, and turtle snorkeling.
Beach polish after Kuta and Uluwatu, then an hour inland for rice-terrace green — boutique hotels and a slower pace.
