Traveller's Journal

A glimpse of the day.

The Vespa purred to life beneath me, and just like that we were off, weaving through Hanoi's labyrinthine streets with the wind in our hair and the scent of street food in the air. Our first stop was the majestic St. Joseph's Cathedral, its Gothic spires a striking contrast to the surrounding hustle. The real adventure began as we delved into the backstreets, uncovering hidden gems and local eateries; each bite of Bún Chả and Bánh Tôm told a story, rich with flavour and tradition. At Train Street, the thrill was palpable, standing mere inches from the tracks as a train thundered by was both exhilarating and surreal. We ended with a cup of Hanoi's famed egg coffee, and as we returned to our hotel the city's lights twinkled around us. I couldn't help but feel a deep appreciation for the vibrant tapestry that is Hanoi.
