On 2.October (Felix’s 29th Birthday, yes he is very old!) we decided to go on a day trip to the beautiful Kuang Si waterfall. The waterfall is located 25km outside of Luang Prabang and can easily be reached by tuk-tuks that leave the city on a regular basis. Kuang Si is set in a stunning location in the middle of the jungle and consists of one big waterfall and a series of smaller falls which are divided by large pools that have formed between them.

Luang Prabang – A world heritage
The bus ride on 30.Sep from Vang Vieng to Luang Prabang was the most scenic we have had on our journey so far. The 7hour bus ride took us high into the Laotian mountains and offered spectacular views of the surrounding area. Laos is truly a beautiful country with lush rainforests, gigantic waterfalls and spectacular mountain scenery.Beo – the talking bird at breakfast -
Vang Vieng – A beautiful landscape
After a brief stay in Vientiane we continued our journey north to Vang Vieng. Our bus left the capital early in the morning on 25.September and drove for roughly 4hours before arriving in Vang Vieng. We immediately made our way to Pan’s Place, a guesthouse which had received great ratings on both hostelworld and tripadvisor.

Vientiane – The Capital
Our “Super VIP” overnight horror bus ride arrived in Vientiane at 8am on 24.September. The bus station was located several kilometers outside of town and a long line of tuk-tuk drivers were already waiting to take the new arrivals into town. Luckily, we had read that Vietiane had a very efficient public bus system.

Pakse – Southern Laos
After a 15hour bus ride from Siem Reap over the Cambodian-Laos border we were more than glad to finally arrive in Pakse. It was already dark and pouring with rain. We took an overpriced tuk-tuk from the bus station to our accomodation “Nang Noi GH” where we had booked a two night stay.
