Look, I might be “The Unprepared Traveller”, but I bloody love coming up with ideas about places before I go. I chat with people who have been there already, gather tips and come up with a bunch of stuff I decided I want to avoid. Based on the conversations I had with people who have already visited Vietnam, and some of the photos and other blogs I had glanced at, I both consciously and subconsciously came up with a list of things that I absolutely wouldn’t do while in Vietnam.
