Riding from Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi
This video is a compilation of the footage I was able to get during our ride from Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi in northern Vietnam. It is really hard to explain the beauty of this country. It is something that you have to see in person.
The total trip was 25 days and we wasted no time getting a bike once we landed in Ho Chi Minh for the trip. Jess has never been on the back of a bike before and after a few rides with a loaned scooter she was feeling semi-comfortable around the hectic traffic. We switched the scooter out for a Honda XR150 and loaded up the bike. With 2 backpacks and 2 smaller bags, we fueled up and set off.
We were not ready for the ever changing landscapes. We stopped frequently to take in the views. The route that we took recommended by Tigit was covered in nice turns sloping down the mountainside. I’m a bit shocked that there wasn’t much of a motorbike/car racing scene here considering the roads the locals ride on everyday would breed some talented drivers/riders.
We spent a night or two in most of the cities but focused most of our time in Ho Chi Minh and Hue where my family lives. Thank you Vietnam for an amazing time, we will be back :)
VIETNAM how to cross roads in Hanoi (sd-video).
Don't look left or right when you cross roads in Hanoi city centre.
But it is not as dangerous as it seems.
Motorists don't drive fast and are very attending.
The only thing is: walk on (as they expect you will).

Our first time to Southeast Asia really had an impact on us, and we are having so much fun seeing this incredible culture through his eyes as we take him around Hanoi for the first time! We broke him in properly with a Vietnamese food tour of course (on the back of mopeds!).

Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this YouTube channel to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling! So we extended our 1 year trip to now FOUR years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before 2020! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)

Raised in the mountains of Colorado, we met working for the United States Olympic Committee and fell in love! Not long after that, we moved to downtown Denver and in our first year living in the city, we caught our travel bug. We started making videos, starting with Alex's first trip to Europe. We fell in love with travel, culture, and food. That was all it took, 2 years in the making we decided we were ready to take off to Southeast Asia and travel.
We wanted to document all our travels mostly for us to look back on and laugh, but also for others to learn and enjoy as well. Our goal is to travel all over the world. This is the beginning of our life of travel, who knows where it will take us but that's the exciting part! We're incredibly thankful to everyone who has supported us and blessed to be able to do what we love every day. Thanks for joining us!

ABOUT US:
We’re traveling full time, living on our own terms and showing you the up-close-and-personal details of us figuring it out along the way. Sometimes it’s about navigating big, life-altering decisions. Sometimes it’s about navigating the seemingly lawless free-for-all that is driving in Hanoi. It’s moments of triumph and moments of panic. The good, the bad, the ugly – and most importantly, the real and real funny.
We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.” Just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem. We believe the world’s a more interesting place when people reject convention in favor of what they actually care about. This is us putting that idea to the test – one budget spreadsheet, RV renovation and mountain-peak drone video at a time.
NANNING-HANOI by rail! Easiest rail border crossing ever, or were online reports correct?
This overnight rail journey was the crossing I was most worried about, having read some scary reports online. After one last look around Nanning, I boarded the Chinese train across the China-Vietnam border to Hanoi. I end up at a very quiet station 5km from the city centre.

Join me Monday to Friday on this amazing road trip through Vietnam. I aim to create an entertaining piece of content about my travels 5 times per week. Unless literally everything goes wrong, but than still, I'll try to make a video about that! I can be super excited about the simple things in life and I think that life is amazing! By creating these VLOGS I hope to put a smile on your face too every day of the week!
Before motorbiking through Vietnam, I crossed the Pacific Ocean on sailing boats and visited The Unites States, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, The Marquesas Islands, Tahiti, The Kingdom Of Niue, Rarotonga, Tonga, Fiji, some other small islands and ended up in New Zealand. In New Zealand I cycled 3.000km from top to bottom. After that I flew to Vietnam to start this motorbike tour. Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi by Motorbike.

Vietnam motorcycle road trip from Saigon to Hanoi 2017
Brother and I took a three-week, 3500km motorcycle road trip in Vietnam starting off in Ho Chi Minh City up to Hanoi.
Backpacking Hanoi, Vietnam - Indochina (Sleeper Bus, The Old Quarter) - Vlog 11
Ciao Beatiful people!
My brother and I went backpacking in Indochina. Y'all curious how we did it for the first time? ;)
It ain't easy planning our trip as we got zero clue about their land transport system and language... they dont even speak english. But with a very keen research, it's all possible!
This is part one:
Video Index:
01:40 - Old Quarter House (Hanoi Accommodation)
02:40 - Pho Bo 69 (Really good Pho/Vietnamese Noodles)
04:29 - Pho Gia Truyen (Popular Pho in Old Quarters)
05:04 - Manh Coffee (Coconut Coffee / Ca Phe Cot Dua)
05:15 - Banh Mi A (Banh Mi Ga Quay, Ca Phe Trung)
05:50 - Old Quarter
06:05 - Hoan Kiem Lake
07:05 - Nuoc Ngam Bus Station (Sleeper Bus from Hanoi to Vientiane)
08:30 - Sleeper Bus Overview
10:00 - Vietnam-Laos Border / Immigration
Here are some tips before you go Backpacking Indochina/Hanoi:
- Book your bus through Baolau or Bookmebus (they're the best choice out there). Remember to book at least 1 week ahead.
- Book your activities and tours through Klook. reliable, affordable, and better services.
- Book your other activities and tours through airbnb too.
- Book your accommodation through Booking.com, the hotels/motels are so cheap but the quality is good! No need for homestays or airbnb if u aint needing kitchen etc.
- Bring US dollars. Easier to exchange. Most shops especially in Cambodia accepts USD as payment.
- Download offline maps of each country/city in google. Trust me, it's a life saver.
- You can wear tank tops, shirts, shorts in each country. But if you're going to sacred places like temples, you've got to wear shirts and pants.
- Use Taxi/Grab in Vietnam / Laos / Cambodia, it's fairly cheaper than Philippines. Thailand has the same rate. If you dont wanna haggle the rate of the taxi, better book through Grab. Safer and reliable. Try tuktuk, these are like pedicabs / tricycles, cheaper but it'll take longer.
- Bring Off Lotion (Insect repellant), small towel, toiletries, tissues, emergency meds/pills when Backpacking. Anything that you could think off but mind the weight especially when you're going home through plane.
- Eat as much street food and drinks as you can, it's cheap and a once-in-a-lifetime moment... yah including the exotic ones. ;)
- If you're part of ASEAN, you don't need visa. However, if you're from other non participating countries, you can apply beforehand or have visa on arrival. Check your passports entry power. It's fairly easy to go to each countries immigration, it's different from the ones on the airport but pretty much the same process.
- Take lots of videos not only pictures! The views are really magnificent.

MOTORCYCLING VIETNAM | Riding 2,000 KM from Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi through the Old Ho Chi Minh Road
All the time people message me or comment asking what I route I took, how I prepared for the trip, what licenses I had etc.
Instead of replying to them one by one, sign up here and I will share tips & tricks on navigating Vietnam via motorcycle when I finish writing up my experience!
bit.ly/motorcycling_vietnam
My friend and I bought two bikes at the southern end of Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh), strapped our belongings to the back, and motorcycled everyday to reach the northern end (Hanoi).
A year ago we took a 4 day motorcycle riding course. We did this because we thought some day we would do an adventure tour through the infamous Ho Chi Minh trail through Vietnam. It was a beautiful 2,000 KM stretch of open road through the mountains and jungles of Vietnam. I legitimately thought we were going to do this YEARS from now, because then we would actually be 'ready' and 'capable' of doing something like this. The timing just didn't feel right. I was comfortable in my post-grad 9-5 doldrums and put off a trip like this into the 'someday' bucket, using the future as a phony fantasy to justify the present. You and I both know these were just the everyday lies we tell ourselves. In truth, I was scared shitless. I knew that there would be a time when I would do this trip in my life, 100%, but this felt like it was way beyond my comfort zone. I've backpacked through Eastern Europe and slept on stranger's floors before, but I was hesitant to loosen the grip I had on my domestic certainties -- mostly because I would have to hop on a statistically dangerous deathmobile.
Thanks to my friend Russell, that someday happened the same year we got our M1's. I probably timed out of the final confirmation screen multiple times while booking the tickets. But the rest is history: we did it, made it out safe, and only had one (minor) accident. In hindsight everything took care of itself, and the most challenging part of the whole trip was honestly dealing with the rumination before we took the plunge, and that's including running out of gas, breaking down (nearly everyday), and getting ripped off. Unfortunately we did this trip during the rainy season.
What was amazing and literally saved us multiple times were the locals. We had to make it to Nha Trang but broke down in the middle of a mountain at 5 PM right before sunset, right when the fog was rolling in. (Visibility was only 2 meters ahead) Locals nearby took our bikes to the back of their trucks, strapped it on with our bungee cords, and siphoned the gas themselves with their mouths to prevent any leakage on their trucks. They took us to Dalat which was along the way.
One time, my chain flew off 50 M behind me and snapped completely. We were stuck on the Ho Chi Minh Road where a bike/truck passes by every 5-10 minutes. Our third attempt to hail someone down resulted in two local farmers who got down on their knees and spent at least an hour using their scythe that was for crops as a way to re-attach the chain. After failing to do so, the other farmer eventually rode off to the nearest village and secured the parts from a mechanic to actually re-attach the chain. They wouldn't even take our money, but eventually we repaid them for the parts and many gracious goodbyes were made :)
