Hanoi, Vietnam

Here we are, on Christmas Day, in Vietnam. Hanoi is another world. I had never seen so many motorbikes all at once. No rules, no traffic lights. It's controlled chaos. The only way to cross the street is to take a deep breath and go. Walk slowly, straight, and most importantly never stop. Motorbikes will go around you.


Merry Christmas! It was my best Christmas ever... surrounded by people who hate Christmas as much as I do. This is R infront of Ho Chi Minh’s austere mausoleum.
