Impression of Laos – Vientiane, Vang Vieng & Luang Prabang
Laos is a country of Buddhists. The slow-paced urban life makes local people more willing to be at leisure, drink some coffee or beer while chitchatting. Most Lao people seem to prefer a casual lifestyle rather than...

    I have roughly two and a half months of summer to spare (early June to mid August). I'm looking to travel a part of Africa as an option. My options are extremely open. I'm not a super budgeted traveler but I would like to save when I can. Thus, camping, road trips, etc. are in favor. I'm thinking of traveling a few countries (perhaps roughly 5-7) staying in each for around a week or two, seeing the essentials or sometimes being more chill and slow paced. I'm super flexible and this is an initial idea, so chime in if you have anything! I'm looking for a travel buddy or travel buddies, preferably someone who drives (I can drive but I'm not too experienced). I'm open to anything at this point! I'm a foodie. I love nature but I wouldn't like to make it the soul purpose of the trip, I am fascinated by culture and humanity as well. I thoroughly enjoy challenging and borderline activities, I'm very spontaneous. Feel free to message me on instagram as well: barbara87211
