Upcoming trip
... 18px;">From Vietnam I'll find a way to reach CHINA my old nemesis with Visa.
And from there I found connections at 1400 kms reaching Taiwan but mostly for chinese residents..
So I'll find a way to sneak on those very cheap boats or flights if ever there's one from Xiamen . And in Taiwan the fantasy will start : Finding a real job to survive, of course without any visa of any kind where would the fun be otherwise ? :))

... smaller boats. No room but rafted up alongside we are fine. And there is power. The best part of cambrai is that were only a city away from the belgium border. Tomorow we hope to be in valenciennes which is a stones throw (comparitivly) from belgium. i will be sad to leave france but it is a huge milestone ticked off. France from one end to the other with bugger all ...
Back in France
... to be a struggle and a half. Pretty much miming our way through the slightest of conversation we eventually got to our room. It was massive! The bed was huge too, it must have been a super king because it didn't matter which way I lay on it my feet weren't off the end. All of a sudden there was a buzzing sound. You know when the room is quiet and then you hear an annoying fly buzzing around, we'll this wasn't a fly but a bee and this bee must of had super ...
