Cycling Northern Vietnam | I Wanted To Travel On My Own (Ep.1)

Join me in Vietnam for my first-ever solo bikepacking trip. With two months ahead of me—full of excitement, and a fair bit of nervousness—I begin riding north from Hanoi toward the Chinese border. Each day brings its own learning curve, but also a chance to connect with the people and their traditions along the way.

During the first week of each video, I disabled mid-roll ads to ensure a more immersive experience. If you'd like to support my storytelling, you can do so by donating via Super Thanks here on YouTube.
