one thing about them: they tag along with us while we trek through the mountains (all the way you know!!) they also like to ask, what is your name, where are you from, how old are you etc. there is a mixture feeling when you mingle with them. at the end of the trekking, they would ask you to buy their handmade handicrafts. and if we dont, we will feel bad for not buying.

the little children there are adorable.

At the end of the trip, Sapa is the most memorable place among the Hanoi trip. In Singapore, the streets are filled with people, cars and tall buildings. But here in Sapa, another world existed. The simple life and agriculture made me feel overwhelmed. maybe because back in spore, we are always so busy and stressful. and yet the people there are contented with the simple living and are so carefree.
