When I made it to Luang Prabang, I was suffering from Paradise hangover. I know, I know, my life is very tough. I had just spent an amazing week with a beautiful Swiss girl in a mountain oasis, and I wasn’t ready for the shock of an incredibly touristy town. I had heard good things, but on initial encounter, I was quite disappointed.
After settling in, and having spent my first night doing nothing, I decided to walk around the town. I had heard about great waterfalls to visit, but I felt that I had to try and seek the out what my traveling friends had felt when they said they loved LP.
After walking from one end to the other, and seeing the riverside attractions for both rivers (the Namou and Mekong) I decided to take refuge at a small stand selling cold drinks. This is where my day got interesting.
