John and I are very proud of ourselves that we have been getting along
together very well so far. It has taken us a lot of practice, but now
we make a good team. We have noticed in Laos that there are many solo
travelers, maybe as many as a quarter of all travelers. It is
certainly doable, especially in Laos. I still think it's more fun to
be on a team. On the other hand, all the Chinese travelers seem to
be in big packs. We have seen several car clubs with caravans as
large as 20 cars, and coming from as far as Suzhou. I cannot imagine
traveling for so long in a big group either.
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.
