Travel in Asia

Hayslip was born a Vietnamese peasant in 1949; little more than 20 years later she left for the United States with an American husband. Her early years were spent as a Viet Cong courier and lookout; a black marketeer; an unwed mother; a bar girl; a hospital aide; and (once) a prostitute. She was tortured by the South Vietnamese army, raped by Viet Cong, and harassed by Americans.

Adventure Travel in
South East Asia
by Dorte Holm Jensen

Riding an elephant through
the jungle in Thailand,
watching orangutans in
Borneo, strolling the
colorful, bustling markets of
Kuala Lumpur and
Bangkok or tasting the
light and flavorful
Vietnamese food from one
of the small street stalls in
Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) is
all part of exploring South
East Asia.

Since you are reading this
you probably expect a little
more than a picture-
postcard from your visit to
South East Asia. You have
this urge to scratch the
surface and dig a little
deeper into the culture and
soul of the place you are
visiting. Going on an
adventure travel will give
you the possibility to do so
- among a lot of other
advantages.

There are all kinds of
different adventure tours
available. You can plan your
trip to suit your interests
and exertion Level.

As bicycles are Southeast
Asia’s most popular mode
of transport there’s no
better way to explore this
fascinating part of the
world. How does 22 days
challenging jungle hiking
and bicycle-expedition
across three of the most
remarkable countries in
South East Asia sound?

If this sounds a little too
much for you; just choose
another way to explore
South East Asia. Take the
Bamboo Train and explore
Cambodia’s southern
coastline. Enjoy diving and
snorkeling. Some areas in
Cambodia are still
completely untouched by
tourism.

Or why not visit one of
South East Asia’s best kept
secrets, Laos. The northern
areas of Vietnam and Laos
have been virtually off limits
to travellers for years, and
many places have remained
a mystery since the days of
the Vietnam War. Spend
time with ethnic minorities
of both Vietnam and Laos in
home stays, explore the
mysterious 'Plain of Jars'
and the even more
mysterious 'Stonehenge of
Laos'. Travel on the mighty
Mekong River and walk in
the serenely peaceful
streets of Luang Prabang.

Malaysia and Papua New
Guinea are other
possibilities for the
adventure seeker. Papua
New Guinea is home to
some of the least explored
terrain on earth.
For a longer trip - start in
ultra modern Singapore and
work your way up through
Malaysia and Thailand. Both
countries are fascinating to
explore. You can hike
through jungles and
mountains and relax on
pristine white beaches.
Days of leisure and scenic
beauty await you.
