We were horrified to follow the shocking events that have been unfolding in Nepal these recent days. Nepal has a special place in our heart.

It was only 4 years ago that we stayed for the night in Syafrubesi, a little village on the Trishuli River that was the central river of the flooding disaster. The village was the start and finish point of the Langtang trek and it is hard to fathom that most of this village, including the beautiful family run hotel that we stayed in, has vanished. The hotel was set back from the river, but not far enough to escape the ravaging waters that hurtled down the river canyon.

Our hearts go out to all those who have passed in this tragedy, the families and friends of those affected and to all of the people of Nepal. A nation of the kindest people, who do not deserve this suffering.

We have made a donation of $200 to aid the rescue works. At the moment Paddy Pallin are matching all donations made up to $50,000 so if you haven't donated yet, it's the perfect time.

The land of noodle soup 🍲

What better destination for our dental holiday than a country with such an extensive variety of noodle soups ? So easy to eat after having 2 wisdom teeth pulled out 🤣

We knew we had a bit of dental work needed since last year, so we decided to visit our old dentist in Da Nang.
We first met Dr Diep about 6 years ago, during one of our visits to Vietnam, and immediately felt at ease in her clinic. Something about walking barefoot at The dentist just feels right. She was so gentle and lovely that she stayed in our mind since.

2.5 weeks later, plus 8 visits to Dr Diep - our dental journey is coming to an end.
From our very modest calculations - what cost us $1260 here, would have cost over $7000 in Australia 😯

Here is a selection of some of our dentist friendly eats 😆

Lovely Hoi An ❤️

Goodbye Thailand 😢

After a very emotional farewell to the doggo family in Koh Chang we made our way to Bangkok for a final few days of eating and exploring before leaving to our next destination.

Our 6 weeks at the shelter have been testing at times, but we wouldn't change it for the world. These 9 beautiful dogs have made an impact on us for life - I'm sure.

Next up - Back again to Vietnam for dental treatment and lots of healthy eats 🤤

This little fluff ball jumped up on our bench and joined us for morning coffee.
Perfect timing - just when we were missing our sanctuary doggos.

This little man lives in the pet store across the street and comes for cuddles at the coffee shop when he feels like a little adventure. What a perfect life for a Vietnamese dog 😀

Our walk by the river with the dogs was interrupted by a loud plonk. We saw this Red Tail Racer snake fall from the high tree above. As it landed on a rock it stunned itself and us. After a short while, recovering on the rock - they made their way back up the tree via the river.

This island is filled with all sorts of snakes and other creepy crawlies.
The lady at the restaurant we often have lunch at told us the other week that a huge python ate one of her cats in the middle of the night 😯

During our time off, we enjoy taking our scooter and exploring all the corners of the island.
Koh Chang is the third largest island in Thailand, but its size is not immense and it's easy to explore the coastline by bike. The interior is mostly impenetrable with thick green and untouched forest. Still it has so many beautiful spots to stop and admire the views and when you fancy enjoy some local Thai cuisine.

Here is a selection of some of our favourite spots across the island.

Mapeed coffee. Our new favourite discovery 😃
I never imagined the combination of calamansi and coffee would be so delicious and refreshing.
The view is not so bad either 😉

Staying in the sanctuary and looking after the pups, means that we can't always go out for lunch / dinner. The vegan options in the village are nice, but limited and the really tasty food is a decent scooter drive away.

Forced to get creative with our limited kitchen utensils and appliances we have been loving creating meals from the ingredients on offer here in the little village shops. We have especially loved the abundance of fresh herbs on offer including thai basil, coriander and mint.
This is what we have created with limited equipment: one gas stove and a blender.
