Laos is a beautiful country on the main backpacker route through Southeast Asia.
East of Thailand, West of Vietnam, and North of Cambodia - it's right in the middle of all these popular countries that many travelers visit in SE Asia.
In this first episode of this series, I leave Thailand starting in Chiang Mai and take a bus to the city of Chaing Khong where I cross the border into Laos. I heard a lot of talk about the infamous slow boat in Laos down the Mekong River, so I decided to go for it myself.
It's a 2-day ride starting in the Laos border town, Huay Xai. Since it's a 2-day journey, we ride about 6 hours each day with an overnight stop in the town of Pakbeng.
Eventually, we make it to Luang Prabang and I'm happily greeted by some awesome viewers of this channel!
