Flooded Road in Salavan Laos Stopped My Journey To The North (Laos Motorbike Trip 🇱🇦 Ep28)

In this Vlog, I take the treacherous road from Thateng to Phon and with some huge miscalculations, I made some huge errors that would change the face of this episode and the direction I would take.
I have to make some huge decisions to make sure I make it to the place I want to get to as the rain and wet season was severely impacting what I could do
Enjoy!
Michael

La campagne le paysage du LAOS très jolie 😃👍

[@freshbeliefadventures]

Je suis d'accord, c'est l'un des plus beaux pays que je connaisse

[@liamluangrath6280]

Thanks for sharing the history , the culture, the art of Laos. Wow the rain didn’t stop you. I hope you will have lots of views and subscribers. Best wishes to you. Btw, once in awhile, your sounds fluctuate from normal to low to normal to low. FYI. Be safe buddy.

[@freshbeliefadventures]

Haha, no. The rain is to be expected and just had to keep moving forward, what scared me more was getting stuck in the middle of nowhere on a road that would be an ice rink.
Laos history is quite interesting and they have some amazing warriors too.
In regards to the sound, that sometimes goes up and down either with the editing or the Go pro I was recording on. Thank you for letting me know though

[@viexay]

How long you been living in Laos 🇱🇦 ? And how long do you planning of staying ?

[@freshbeliefadventures]

At the time I had been in Laos for 2 years and I remained for another year before I left

[@viexay]

@@freshbeliefadventures so where are you currently? Are you not in Laos right now ? I'm not understanding

[@freshbeliefadventures]

No, I'm not currently in Laos
