The first hour in Myanmar is already surprising and unusual: as getting a room in Yangon can be difficult, I did a reservation in a Guest House which offers the taxi from the Airport. During the drive, another traveler, Mathieu,…
Bangkok again
The few days in Bangkok were more for the organization of my Myanmar trip: visa, money, hotel reservation. Getting the visa is pretty easy: you let your passport in a morning and get it 2 days later in the afternoon.…
Kolkata
I enjoyed 2 days in Kolkata, hosted by Avik (CS) and his family, and walking through the city with Lukas from Germany, the other guest at Avik’s place. Together, we helped them to organize their 3-week trip in Mai 2013!…
