A stop to take in the views at the bamboo bridge in Luang Prabang, Laos, while wandering through the touristy town on my first day.

Luang Prabang, the former capital of Laos, is an over-hyped, overpriced tourist town, but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth visiting.
Among my rough itinerary in Laos was a trip to the famous Kuang Si waterfall to see why this site was hyped by every other traveler.
While searching for a tour that didn’t include elephant riding, I found MandaLao Elephant Sanctuary outside Luang Prabang, Laos.
I love coffee. And there’s nothing better than combining coffee and travel–it’s the fuel that keeps the adventures going.
There isn’t a lot of drinking excitement in Laos between Vientiane and Luang Prabang, but there’s enough to enjoy for a bit.
With all the natural scenery, temples, culture, and food, I’ll probably most remember the sunsets in Laos, all of which were Mekong sunsets.
