... with tourists. In the last 24 hours we have seen more independent travelers than we saw in the whole of Myanmar in four weeks. John exclaimed, “there are more tourists here than in Rome!”
We had a such a hard time finding a room that last night we took the last available room (without a bathroom and up 3 flights of stairs) at the Orchid Guesthouse, just 3 minutes ahead of another couple from the same flight.
After looking at over a dozen places this morning, we now have a nice home at the RV Riverine with bathroom en suite, Wi-Fi, and breakfast buffet. Yes!!!
Sun-Ling and John have been traveling the earth since 2008 while blogging, eating vegetarian and vegan, and riding public transportation. We love uphill day hikes, 20th-century architecture, Roman ruins, all bodies of water, local markets, shopping for groceries, aqueducts, miradors, trip planning, blablacar, and more.
