The boat gently glided along for over six hours. Other than the engine itself, there was barely a sound. I’m no stranger to the sea, but this surreal experience of seemingly endless islands is something I’ll treasure forever. I had a quick swim in the ocean when the boat anchored in the middle of no-where, my girlfriend joined me in a kayak around the turquoise sea. The pinnacle of our Vietnam trip was completed in the last few hours where the sun slowly burned out.
