Description
Come along for a virtual journey to rural Vietnam with broadcast journalist Kathleen McCleery. In Son Doong cave in Quang Binh province, she and her husband scaled rocks and ravines, slogged through rivers and streams, marched up and down steep slopes, and slept in the world’s most spectacular campsites. Their trip included the northwestern part of the country where ethnic tribes still live as they did centuries ago. The couple stayed in inns and homestays, visited organic tea farms and a silk factory, and ate meals—always with rice, once with crickets!
