Viewpoint of Mai Chau, a small mountain town about four hours west of Hanoi. It's a beautiful place to spend a few days bicycling through rice fields, motorbiking to the lake, and exploring local villages.

An easy activity that you can do without a guide while in Mai Chau is walk up the 1000 steps. The steps begin just off the main road and end at an amazing cave, with remarkable viewpoints of the town below as you go along. Make sure to bring water! 5,000d.

Cats on the not so hot tin roof in a local village south east of Hanoi. This was my second visit with Bloom Microventures, a microfinance charity that helps empower marginalised women in the countryside that live below the poverty line (less than $18 a month household income in Vietnam). Visit if you want to get to know Vietnam beyond the  tourist gloss and make a real difference.
