Personal highlights

  1. Houaphanh Province: lovely area with little infrastructure
  2. Laotian Roads: mostly in a terrible shape full of potholes
  3. Roadtrip: riding nearly 300 km on one day on my Honda Win
  4. Pit stops: there is no real city or hotel in between, only locals
  5. Journey: driving all the way from Vieng Xai to Phonsavan
