Mui Ne is a fishing town turned resort where you can find youth hostels, backpackers and high-end luxury hotels and spas. Despite recent tourist development it is definitely worth visiting. If you go, stay on the bus, pass all the snazzy resorts, and pick a place closer to the original fishing town - you will find peace and quiet for very very little money in this tropical beach paradise. It is one of the most breathtakingly beautiful places I have ever seen. I spent 4 days there... this is day 1.

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
I spent my first 48 hours in Vietnam in Ho Chi Minh City, formally known as Saigon. Motorbikes whizzed by beeping and tooting their horns, the smell of lemon grass and fresh lime lured me to every corner, heat and humidity forced my shoulders to relax and painted a smile on everyone's face. The city felt like a living, breathing being and I was in love. After 12 hours I was already thinking about when and how I could make it back for more.
