i am sitting in the very busy train station in Da Nang. That name was always associated with war in the past; in the future, it will bring back memories of long, beautiful beaches and a bustling, move-forward city.
My time in Hoi An was perfect. I didn’t realize how much I needed to relax and unplug from the road until I actually did it. Loc Phat Villa and Homestay was the perfect place to do that too, far enough from the old quarter to be quiet but still walkable. Linh, her sister Hoang and their entire family were great hosts, friendly and helpful. Staying next door to a temple assisted with the whole Zen feel to my visit here too.
Most memorable experience in Hoi An…Banh my! To die for! Next stop, Dong Hoi and the caves! But first, a six-hour train trip in the club car…adventure awaits methinks.
