After 5 weeks in China it was time to move on to Vietnam! We took a 3.5 hour bus ride to the boarder, went through a very easy border crossing, and then continued for another 3 hours until we arrived in Hanoi!
Despues de un largo tiempo dejamos China atras y nos fuimos a Vietnam. Tardamos 3.5 horas desde Nanning hasta el limite. Al presentar los pasaportes en el lado de Vietnam, el oficial que me atendio me devolvio el pasaporte con una sonrisa y llamandome "Maradona" excelente manera de entrar a un pais.
