Should I go Central Vietnam?
at the brink of deciding on whether to spend my 1 week break from work in Vietnam. Hue & Hoi An to be exact.
Against:
- Cities. With historical buildings, but still cities. I do prefer more natural settings.
- Prices. Air fare quite expensive. Total calculated need to spend abt $830 for 7 days, compared to $710 for 8 days last year.
- Company. or the lack of. The prospect of being lonely in a foreign city is a little intimidating.
For:
- Adventure. Being alone pushes me out of my comfort zone, which is good. I am forced to open my mouth to complete strangers, and not just those who are trying to sell me stuff.
- Freedom. no need me to wait for anyone, no need anyone to wait for me.
- I deserve a vacation.
Care to give me some advice?
