Laos trekking

Isa and myself have just gone back from a 2 days trekking in the mountains of North Laos - Luang Prabang area - and it has been an excellent experience that I would hardly recommend to everyone who is able to walk and literally "sweat" for almos 7h a day (20km.... up and down the hills).

But the view that you see, everything soooo green and confused between palm trees and rice fields is definitivelt wonderful and you feel very FREE and in peace with the World. We have had a very good guide - Sack - a local guy about thirty - which has been a very good speaker and introducer about the story of every single local tiny village that we have crossed during our trekking.

We have spent the night in a local village on the mountains, having an oper air cold "shower", having dinner cooked by local people, watching a thai tv series with a family (they do not have electricity but they use a generator to let the tv work!!!) and sleeping in a very rural wooden hud just hearing the voice of the animals over night.

Good one, really, and ending the day after again with a soft trekking and a fantastic and bath into the cool waterfalls to finally rest.

Every day is a new experience here in Laos: local people, the orange colour of the monks, the smiling kids, the green panorama, the backpackers, the asian food...

Do not forget to add Laos to your next trip!
