I recommend visiting - Hoi An, Vietnam

I cannot say enough good things about Hoi An. Not only is the location optimal, between Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi with direct access to both a beautiful beach and vibrant Town, but Hoi An itself is filled with colorful local markets, quaint shops, and stunning architecture. The esthetics and location are only two components that make this town outstanding — during my stay in Hoi An, I experienced some of the best food I have ever had in Vietnam and met people from all over the world. Locals and tourists combine to create an upbeat energy throughout the streets of the Old Quarter which adds a great deal character to the overall ambiance of Hoi An. All of these aspects come together to create remarkable experiences for anybody venturing through.

I recommend staying at - Jaya House River Park, Cambodia

First Class

Throughout Southeast Asia there are secret gems everywhere if you look closely enough — unassuming street food stalls, quiet parks in the busiest of cities, small towns where you will seldom see other tourists, or views within National Parks that are some of the most beautiful you’ll ever see. The Jaya House is one of those best kept secrets and it is a place I’ll always stay anytime I visit Siem Reap. It is not the luxurious and spacious rooms that make this place so special; it’s the welcoming staff, complimentary tuk-tuks that take you into town, free laundry service, and incredible dining that gives you luxury comfort but also gives you the authentic experience that so many are looking for when they visit Cambodia. With just 36 rooms you’ll feel so lucky for a chance to stay there and is a perfect escape after touring the ancient ruins of Angkor.

I'll never forget when…

Jumping on a Vespa and zipping through the bustling streets of Ho Chi Minh City while trying delicious Vietnamese street food was an unforgettable thrill. The ride on the Vespa was an experience in itself and an opportunity many tourists would not have if not for taking this particular tour. The stops throughout the tour provide you with an eclectic mix of food and ambiance. I started my experience chowing down on the freshest seafood in a restaurant populated by locals, by the end of the tour I was on stage belting out Shot through the Heart with the rest of my group and tour guide as we concluded our night at this amazing live music bar near the heart of the city. The experience was one for the books to say the least.
