Day 13 – 21st June 2007
Thus this is a concluding entry to my entire Cambodia-Vietnam backpacking trip, something I’ve been putting off to complete as I didn’t really want to relive the ending moments of my final days in Vietnam. It was something I had been dreading – returning to negaraku Malaysia, that is – [...]
