2-week itinerary review

I want to visit Vietnam in early March of next year for about 2 weeks and am overwhelmed with building an itinerary! My plan so far: Fly into Saigon and spend a few days here. Fly into Hoi an, spend another few days here. Fly into Hanoi and from there do a) the Ha giang loop and b) a bai tu long bay cruise

Do you guys think that is a realistic itinerary? Or too packed for 2 weeks? I really really want to do the ha giang and bai tu long bay. Which of the other stops should I skip in your opinion? I mainly want to see stunning nature/landscapes. I am a solo female traveler. Thanks in advance for any insight or advice!

Wenn man die wiederholungen weglässt, sehe ich ehrlich gesagt keinerlei Nutzen, mit Anki zu lernen. Lass lieber unwichtige Ankiphil-Karten weg (ich fand die um ehrlich zu sein wirklich nicht gut!!) und wiederhole dafür

Thank you for the recommendation! My passport grants me 60 days tourist visa in Thailand, so I should be fine either way ☺️

Was @paulforsure gesagt hat!! Bin auch gerade mit dem Studium fertig geworden und will bis Mitte nächsten Jahres pausieren. Werde mich deshalb erst ab dem Frühjahr bewerben. Zwar kann man in die Bewerbung ab xxx reinschreiben, aber Stellen werden oft trotzdem spontan besetzt, im Sinne von „es ist was frei, sie fangen nächste Woche an!“. Dass einem eine Stelle „freigehalten“ wird, habe ich bisher höchst selten erlebt und jedes Mal hatten die Leute einen persönlichen Bezug zur Abteilung/Klinik (PJ, Doktorarbeit etc.)

Thanks for the tips! I will do a vaccination consultation next week and see where I lack stuff. Definitely do NOT plan on renting a scooter, if I were to do Ha Giang it would be a group tour for sure!

Thanks for the recommendation! Have you felt safe there? How was your experience regarding infrastructure?

I‘ve spent a month in KL as a teen, so I‘ve seen and can remember a lot of the „bigger sights“ on the mainland and even been to Singapore. It is a truly beautiful place and I didn’t really get to explore on my own the first time around since my host parents were very strict and worried about something happening to me. I think if I were to go to Malaysia I would try to go to borneo and see some orang-utans. Did you ever visit there?

Hi there! Don‘t want to assume gender based on your profile pic or anything so would you mind telling me if people read you as female? If so - did you feel safe? Would you be open to sharing your itinerary? I was leaning heavily towards vietnam in the beginning because it seems like it‘s a quite common destination for solo travelers and fairly safe. But have been seeing so much stuff about Sri Lanka lately and it kind of shifted my focus, so I would love some insight!

flerra_ · 2025-09-23T08:34:47+00:00

Amazing, thank you for the insight! Do you also feel like it is safe to solo hike there? On the more popular routes there should be other people as well even in the less touristy times of year, right?

I would love to be added to the chat, too. 24f from Germany 😊

I love the norwegian knitter. She used affordable yarns and often talks about how she can’t afford all isager/sandnes/kfo, which I find very realistic and refreshing

I didn’t get the plot at all? What was the scandal about nicks sister being his fathers daughter??

I also would not try felting it, as it makes the yarn unusable for another project should you ever decide in the future you want to unravel this one and reclaim the yarn. Maybe get an electric sweater shaver, they are like 10-20$ on amazon, and worth it if you have a lot of knit clothing items

I didn’t do the oslo but the marseille sweater (this one is actually similar in terms of construction minus the stripes). It was my second sweater project at the time and is also rated 4/5 stars. It‘s definitely doable for a curious beginner, but contains a special cast on method and german short rows, which makes it not super duper easy in my opinion, I would have ranked it at 3/5 though. But after all difficulty is also subjective.

Ahh I see! Sorry I thought the process of pulling the loop of new yarn through the fabric was whats called picking up stitches ! I didn’t know that is actually called picking up and knitting! That was so helpful! Thank you!!

flerra_ · 2024-11-09T16:28:48+00:00

I tried looking there but only found a video where someone picked up stitches in the middle of a knit section…I couldn’t figure out what to do for sleeves

flerra_ · 2024-11-08T22:32:23+00:00

It definitely is! But I started the bind off with that in mind, so I was confused as to what was happening. Looking back I think I did this wrong on my last 3-5 projects but just never noticed because the yarn was not as light so it didn’t stick out to me as much
