Freedomland Phu Quoc: a beach holiday with amazing food!

VietnamBy JennyMarch 31, 20122 Comments

On a holiday in Vietnam I flew to Phu Quoc Island, way down in the South. The problem is, Phu Quoc isn’t the cheapest of places to visit in Vietnam!   After a fair bit of searching online for satisfactory and budget-friendly accommodation, I finally looked at Tripadvisor, not thinking for a second that the…

About Jenny
My profile pic  

I'm Jenny, and I'm a nomad. I believe in seeing the world slowly, taking my time and soaking up the atmosphere. In the past 15 years I've lived in South Korea, Scotland, Vietnam, New Zealand, and Oman and have traveled a lot around and between those places. Not only do I have thoughts and stories to share, but my memory is increasingly bad, so I've started this blog to help me remember and to tell the world about my travel experiences. Read more >>>

Are you a winter lover or hater? After so long li Are you a winter lover or hater? After so long living in Oman, where winter was the best season, this was the first year in a long time that I was really not looking forward to it! And mostly, Danish winter has lived up to my expectations: grey, dreary, dark and rainy days. But this snow a couple of weeks ago was the first I'd seen in a long, LONG time, and even I will admit that when the sun came out, it was glorious. That bit of fog crossing my path was just the icing on the cake. Hands up 🙋 if you love winter! . . . . . . . . . . @discoverdenmark #discoverdenmark #danmark #denmark #visitfyn #fynskaldetvære #visitnordfyn #fyn #nordfyn #søndersø #dallundslot #naturen #naturbilleder #forestlife #skov #winterforest #vinter #vintersol #foggyforest #gltLOVE #travelinspiration #seetheworld #photographyislife #stayandwander #mytinyatlas #passportrequired #lifeofadventure #globetrotting #itchyfeet #experiencelife #exploretheglobe
Where else are you gonna sleep if you're a Croatia Where else are you gonna sleep if you're a Croatian cat? 😂 I found this one on a morning wander around Trogir, Croatia, where I recently stayed for a month. This cat was not impressed to have me standing there taking pictures of it, but I guess that seat was just too comfy to move! What interesting spot have you seen cats sleeping in? 🐱 . . . . . . . #croatia_photography #croatiatravel #croatiafulloflife #trogir #trogircroatia #dalmacija #dalmatia #catslifestyle #gltLOVE #travelinspiration #seetheworld #photographyislife #solotravel #stayandwander #mytinyatlas #passportrequired #lifeofadventure #globetrotting #welltravelled #itchyfeet #experiencelife #exploretheglobe
Why is Greenland called Greenland when it's mostly Why is Greenland called Greenland when it's mostly covered in ice? It's all thanks to the Vikings. Exiled from Iceland around the year 982, Erik the Red spent three years exploring the southern coasts of Greenland, which is mostly ice-free and, well, green! He saw opportunity here, and when he went back to Iceland he told people about this place, calling it 'Greenland' to entice them to come settle. It worked, and in the year 985, 25 ships left Iceland for Greenland. Only 14 arrived, but those settlers spread themselves all over South Greenland. Erik built himself an estate here in Brattahlíð (present-day Qassiarsuk), where you can still see ruins of Viking buildings, and this reconstruction of a small chapel and a Viking longhouse. Drop an emoji in the comments if you'd like to check out some Viking ruins! . . . . . . . . #gltLOVE #sheisnotlost #Vikings #greenland #kalaallitnunaat #qassiarsuk #southgreenland #sydgrønland #erikthered #brattahlíð #grønland #offthebeatentrack #experiencelife #remotedestinations
I'm hanging out in Croatia for a bit and was lucky I'm hanging out in Croatia for a bit and was lucky enough to spend a couple of days at Plitvice Lakes. It was around the beginning of October, so the fall colours were just starting and the sunny days made it stunning! 🍂 I could have spent a week of those quiet early mornings wandering around the park. Where have you seen beautiful fall colours recently? . . . . . . . . #fallcolours #plitvice #plitvicelakes #plitvickajezera #autumnlove #waterfallphotography
