My therapist told me to write letters to people I

My therapist told me to write letters to people I hated and then burn them. I’ve done that, but now what do I do with the letters?😁 . I’ve been using (maybe not in this context 😛) “my therapist told me” phrase a lot lately, because for the past few months, I’ve been in therapy. .
That was my twisted way of sharing that with you. So here’s the story. . Anyway, in the last years everything bad that was happening in my life was being blamed on living in Manchester. Well, it was very easy to do that, because…it’s Manchester.😛  I was always thinking, that if I was somewhere else, everything would be better. So then we went full-time travelling…something that I was dreaming of for the past 3 years…and it quickly turned out, that maybe it wasn’t all Manchester’s fault. That trip was supposed to be IT - the best time of my life, my great success, my…therapy for everything. The pressure of “making it” and loving it was huge. But when the reality of full-time travelling came knocking, combined with totally new environment, with not “making it” as fast as I wanted and many other factors, I became even more lost than I was. Add to that social media, and I quickly started to feel like I didn’t know what to do with myself anymore. . So in January I made a decision of starting therapy. Remotely obviously. I was super lucky to find a therapist that suited me on the first try and for the past few months I’ve been working with her on weekly basis. And yeah, working is the right word, because it is work. I quickly realized that there’s no magic and if you want to improve your life and your mental health you have to work on it very hard, every day. . But I feel that therapy helped me and that’s why I wanted to share it with you. Despite therapy being “popular” lately, sometimes it still can be considered a taboo topic. . I don’t want to say: go to therapy today😛 but it can definitely help…if help is needed. . No Q today. Feel free to share your thoughts.😉

Would you go there? . Like I even had to ask.😛

Would you go there?

That's Ninh Binh!
Ninh Binh is a province and also a city in Northern Vietnam. It’s the land of rice fields, towering limestone mountains and surreal landscapes. For me it’s a must-visit when going to Vietnam.
.
How to get there?
✅by coach. You can easily book it on 12goAsia. You can also get there by train, but it takes thrice as long.
.
How long should you stay?
✅I’d say at least 2 nights. We stayed there one and that was a mistake. There’s a lot to explore.
❗️Alternatively, you could also go there for one day trip from Hanoi, but in my opinion that’s an even bigger mistake.❗️
.
What to do?
✅rent a scooter and explore. There are lots of pagodas, temples, viewpoints or just super beautiful landscapes.
.
I already shared a lot about Ninh Binh, so follow @aga_on_the_run to know more.

Which time would you choose to come?😛
.
The Golden Bridge aka famous hand bridge in Ba Na Hills in Vietnam is one of those places where you have to arrive at stupid o'clock. It was definitely one of the busiest places I've ever visited.
.
We arrived there after 6am to be on the first cable car up to the hills (because yes, you have to take a cable car to get there) and still we had only 1 minute of the bridge to ourselves.
.
You can imagine that shooting content there was very stressful. In the corner of my eye I could see people disembarking the cable car and it was simply impossible to do every idea I had. So showing how busy it was seemed easier.😛
.
But even if you don't care about photos and videos, I'd still recommend going there early. Just to have space to walk.😉
.
FYI we went there in the middle of Vietnamese holiday season (July), so maybe the other time of the year it's quieter.

It's so hot outside that every time I go out it feels like the devil farted in my face.😛
.
Ohh, I missed writing these cheezy captions.
.
But that's basically how I'd describe the level of heat I felt while taking this photo. It was 38 (100) degrees, felt like 46 (114). I'm sure, that a lot of you had a chance to realize this summer, that 38 is too hot.
.
Luckily the beauty of Bich Dong Pagoda made it worth the struggles. It's located in my favourite (so far) part of Vietnam - Ninh Binh - the land of rice fields, towering limestone mountains and surreal landscapes. . Behind this gate in the picture, you can actually find 3 pagodas which are connected by stone steps. They originated in 15th century and were improved and expanded in 18th by 2 monks. Everything is surrounded by lush greenery, lotus ponds and limestone hills making Bich Dong Pagoda a must visit when in Ninh Binh.
.
What's the hottest temperature you ever experienced?

cycling in Hội An! . Hội An is a city on Vietn

cycling in Hội An!
.
Hội An is a city on Vietnam’s central coast known for its well-preserved Ancient Town, colourful lanterns and...for being extremely busy.
.
But you might think: “how is it busy? It looks super empty in this video and so easy to cycle.”
.
Well, yes... Firstly, when in Hoi An, you can rent a bike and cycle around the Ancient Town. It’s a nice experience, but only when you go at a certain time. And this time surprisingly doesn’t include early morning.
.
So how can you have the best cycling experience in Hoi An?
✅arrange with your hotel/host to provide you with a bike. Every place will do it. That’s the thing there. And most likely it will be cheaper than renting a bike in town.
✅if you do want to rent a bike in town, bring your ID or something you can leave as a deposit.
✅don’t go cycling first thing in the morning! Morning rush hour will destroy your experience. We went cycling twice and the best time was around 8-9 am. It wasn’t that super hot yet and the town seemed fairly quiet. It was probably getting ready for evening craziness aka massive crowds.
✅be super vigilant! Watch out for pedestrians, scooters other bikes and rickshaws - they were the worst, I think they rule is not to stop no matter what.😛
✅it won’t take long to cycle around town. Hoi An’s old town is not that big.
.
Even though Hoi An definitely wasn’t my fav town in Vietnam, cycling there was nice. Follow these rules and enjoy!
.
What’s your fav way of commuting in the places you visit.

9 months of full-time travelling!🌏
.
Who can name all the countries? There’s 5😁
.
Ok, I’ll tell you:
🇹🇭 Thailand
🇱🇰 Sri Lanka
🇦🇺 Australia
🇻🇳 Vietnam
🇲🇾 Malaysia
.
Did I think on 06.10.2021 (when we started) that we’ll visit more countries?
YES
Do I regret not visiting more?
NO
.
That’s the thing with full-time traveling, you learn to travel in a different way, you appreciate staying longer in one place, you discover that it’s cool to feel like a local.
.
In general, you learn a lot about yourself, about the world and about travelling.
.
So follow @aga_on_the_run for more insight into my full-time travel experience.
.
Have you ever gone full-time travelling? Do you want to try it?
