Floating Markets of Thailand
On a recent trip to Thailand, I had the opportunity to visit one of the country's famous floating markets. It was an incredible experience to see vendors selling their wares from boats on the canals. I tried some delicious Pad Thai and even bought a hand-woven scarf as a souvenir.
Ha Long Bay in Vietnam
Ha Long Bay in Vietnam is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and for good reason. The towering limestone pillars jutting out of the emerald water are truly breathtaking. I kayaked through the bay and even visited some of the caves hidden within the cliffs.
Rice Terraces of Banaue in the Philippines
The Banaue Rice Terraces in the Philippines are a marvel of agricultural engineering. Carved into the mountainsides centuries ago, these terraces are a testament to the ingenuity of the Ifugao people. Hiking through the terraces was a challenging but rewarding experience, offering stunning views of the surrounding valley.
