Travelling again, another trip to Vietnam. Ho is very close to home, less than a 2 hour flight. Vietnam is one of my favourite countries in Asia although I like all of them in this region.

We are living during a time of changing weather, as confirmed by it's increased news coverage. The Earth's weather was more predictable before we changed the climate by our carbon dioxide emissions. Apparently stratospheric winds caused by [...]
