Our first blog post, talk about pressure... Our goal was to start this blog on the first on January when we started our "gap year" off celebrating new years in Hanoi, Vietnam. Sounds perfect right? A New Years celebration to commence the trip of a life time. Well, that's what we thought at least, until the reality of being 28 set in and we realized we are no spring chicken anymore that can handle 30 hours of traveling and going though a 16 hour time difference without some downtime. I regrettably must inform you that even with our best intentions of starting off 2017 with a bang, we hit the snooze button one too many times and slept though the festivities.
However, I am getting ahead of myself. As we do have a lot of catching up to do, does sleeping through NYE2017 excuse us from not writing? No, no it does not. Our lack of blogging has not been due to neglect but rather an issue with Google locking us out of our accounts. We had to use a "Proxy" in order to out smart the system and get back into the swing of things. I will be the first to admit we are not the most tech savvy girls but we can be resourceful when necessary and have a great support system of smart friends and family back home (you know who you are and we thank you). So cheers from the beautiful ancient city of Hoian and the numerous mistakes and lessons that have led us here. We can't wait to share more with you as we continue our trip of a lifetime that we literally sacrificed blood, sweat and tears for. Oh ya, and that great support system we mentioned from back home, thank you for helping us get here! Vietnam is absolutely beautiful, crazy, loud, delicious and unforgettable.
