I ALMOST DIDN'T MAKE IT | 4 Day Ha Giang Loop In Vietnam (watch before you go!)

This was absolutely one of the craziest trips I have ever done in my 32 years of travel. The Ha Giang Loop in northern Vietnam is one of the most incredible motorbike rides in the world, but it is not for the faint of heart. You really have to be such an experienced driver (with an international motorbike license) to do this trip yourself and I would highly recommend you taking an Easy Rider if you have even the smallest doubt about your capabilities. I hope this video will be helpful for anything thinking of attempting this trip and would love to know your thoughts in the comments!

    The scenery is just beyond words. A curving, swerving, paradisal fairytale. I'm sorry you felt so rough for long stretches of time. Your determination to plough on has produced some of the finest road trip footage I have ever seen. Be proud, because I assure you, your footage has transported eyes across the globe! I truly had no idea Vietnam was this eye-poppingly dramatic, and you've given me the itch to do this loop if ever I get the chance. Thank you again, brilliant determination to complete the loop, and so great to have shared this with your father.

    It was a really nice experience to be able to do this with your family. Especially with your parent. I missed my dad, my dad got paralyzed when I was 6 and I spent the next 30 years helping my mom take care of him. I didn't get the experience of what it's like to be spoiled by my parents. Even though it's tough growing up and having to become an adult early, I would still wish my dad were alive, I don't mind taking care of him longer and would definitely take him to experience some of these adventures.

    Woow!!! That was some awesome kind of traveling video on a motorbike upon such fascinating and dangerous mountain roads. I can imagine how horrible that must have been to sit on a bike as a duo-rider that far. It's so much tougher, because you have to balance your upper body only with your back. For the main rider it is much easier, because he can rest his arms on the steering and that helps to support his back a lot. I ride motorbikes for many years and I never went farther than 100km and that was tiring enough for my butt and back.. I feel so sorry for you and your Dad. Excursions like these are something you don't want to do it again unless you are running for your life. Definitely a great video.Thank you Alina.

So Alina's warnings should be taken seriously. Benefit of being a KZreadr is that even though you're not really there when you're there. You can look at your video and and see what you actually did. Nice video as always.

    Wow, what a trip! Vietnam, one of the Asian gems you never hear anything about in the news or people talk about it but it seems a magical place to go. My personal preferences are the more Nordic countries, I told you about Canada as my first bucketlist to do thing but I have Asian roots partly. So I think India will the first place I will ever visit in Asia as my far ancestors came from it. The chaos, the absolute madness etc, yes must have experienced that as well. But you give me so much inspiration with all those travels, life is to short to do it all 🤪
