I am fascinated by the countryside. It doesn’t matter what country I’m in, I always feel a pull to be in the country. Open space, fresh air, sky that isn’t blocked by tall buildings. So when my friend and I got to Hue, Vietnam, we quickly jumped on the chance to do a tour of the countryside. While it was a tour open to all, it was just the two of us and our guides on our own private tour. We cruised on the back of motorcycles past fields, temples used by small communities, and saw all that the Hue countryside had to offer. Our guides even showed us to their childhood home, a series of colorful, ramshackle houses on little back roads, a flowing river just across the street. That was easily one of my favorite days. I only wish I had taken more photos but I was having too much fun enjoying myself 🙂
