After spending a month in Laos, we took the China-Laos Railway...thanks to the suggestion of our Chinese friends...to cross the border into China! 

Our first stop? Jinghong (景红), the heart of Xishuangbanna in Yunnan province.

Yunnan is known as one of the most beautiful regions in China, famous for its diverse ethnic cultures and warm climate. While Ryan has lived in China before (and has fallen in love with Yunnan before), this is Fabio’s first time, so what will our first impressions be? 🤔

Join us on this vlog adventure as we explore Jinghong’s top attractions, including: The lively Gaozhuang Night Market, The stunning Manting Park and The golden Buddhist Dajin Pagoda Temple.

China is a whole new world for us, and we can’t wait to share this journey with you!

Welcome to Jonker Walk in Malacca, Malaysia.

With over 450 stalls, Jonker Street night market becomes a foodie's heaven on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. One thing we noticed on a wander through was how pungent both the stinky tofu and durian was, so we knew we had to make those the main focus of the video and our mission to try. 

Enjoy as we try to find some of the weirdest and smelliest foods on Jonker Walk (these are much less weird than some of the night markets we've been to in Thailand).

(SORRY about some of the audio in the clip. We were trying out some new (cheap) microphones and we have since gotten rid of them 🤣. Please stay with us and put the captions on.)
