The Indian Contractor visits Vietnam and China on a Shoestring

Travel time: May / June 2007  |  by The Indian Contractor

Mistakes Made

1) Bad financial Planning. I had to skip Hoi An due to a poor estimate of costs. Always include shopping items in your budget.

2) Bad Planning in Beijing! You need atleast 4 days to finish Beijing properly. We literally raced against time and nearly lost the race!

3) carelessness: Check Itenaries at every destination to remind yourself of flight times and train times. The Guangzhou disaster would tell you why.

This is the shortest entry in this Travelogue.
