Average Jordi Watch

gritty cargo
# rough burrow idk, oneindig. kan niks kapot aan deze dingen

The watch front is marked "Water Resist",[6] but Casio reports different values for different variants of the watch. The black version (F91W-1)[8] is "30 meter / 3 bar" (i.e. 100 feet / 44 psi), the ISO standard meaning of which is: "Suitable for everyday use. Splash/rain resistant. NOT suitable for showering, bathing, swimming, snorkeling, water related work and fishing".

uzbekistan cool

gritty cargo
# upbeat raven you should do this

It’s so random as well because this is just a small airport in Vietnam that even doesn’t have a lot of domestic connections either

gritty cargo
#

@warm basalt any specific wishes before I leave Vietnam? I’ll basically have done the whole famous north-south line by train

warm basalt
#

let me think

#

you have some gaps still

gritty cargo
# warm basalt

Yeah I still need to book that ticket but it will be closed

warm basalt
#

hmm

gritty cargo
#

The only actual gap that will probably remain is between Hanoi and Ninh Binh

warm basalt
#

it would look good on the map if you went to the southern tip of vietnam

gritty cargo
#

It’s not a super long distance but I don’t like Hanoi, don’t really feel like going back all the way to Hanoi or Ninh Binh just for that small distance

warm basalt
#

also overland connection between vietnam and thailand

gritty cargo
#

You can apparently take a ferry from the island where I’m on now to the mainland, west

gritty cargo
#

Same same

warm basalt
#

where are you off to next

gritty cargo
#

The plan for now sort of is Laos (fly?), China (LCR, Laos China Railway), Hong Kong (train), Cambodia (fly), Malaysia (fly)

#

But it might make more sense to cross to Cambodia via land and then Laos via land

#

I don’t know how I came up with that order because if you plot it on a map it’s kinda weird if I’m in Vietnam anyway

warm basalt
#

max china

#

This will be insane

#

why do you need a vietnamese bank account

#

dont they accept dutch credit or debit cards?

#

and if they dont couldnt you take out cash at an atm

gritty cargo
#

did you follow my advice about getting Revolut btw, I can send you a referral link lmao

warm basalt
#

no

gritty cargo
#

But in Vietnam, even more in Thailand, they only accept cash or QR payments. These QR payments only work with Vietnamese (and Thai) banks. In Thailand it's not possible to open a bank account as a tourist, and apparently you can do it at one bank in Vietnam, so I will try that. It would be funny if I could finally pay with QR, because sometimes it's quite convenient if you don't have enough cash or don't want to spend cash

#

it's quite odd. the smallest street vendor will not accept card but they will always have a picture of a QR code so everyone just pays each other using their phone, but us tourists have to use cash

gritty cargo
#

Some places in Thailand take card. But it's rare, mostly the expensive (western prices!) places do

#

And hotels and hostels always charge 3% extra for using your card

warm basalt
#

why should I do it

gritty cargo
#

Convenient international payments if you meet others and want to split a bill or whatever (a lot of travellers have it, if you don't believe me just wait and see until you meet others lol) and better exchange rates / low or zero fees for ATM withdrawals and foreign currency conversions

@rough burrow @warm basalt opinion on how late I should arrive at airport? Flight at 13.15, check-in closes 40 minutes before, gate closes 15 minutes before. I expect no long security check, quick passport or visa control (this island is visa-free, the mainland isn’t )

#

Should've taken more stoptreinen hanoi

gritty cargo
#

I don't think Hanoi really has any stoptreinen

#

They only have 2 stations with like 4 trains per day or so

#

These ones will be difficult, except for the Ninh Binh - Hanoi part. The line to China is rare I think and the one to Ha Long Bay (most right) is not even in use right now! And maybe never..

storm iris
#

Ninh Binh-Hanoi seems easy enough

#

Kinda crazy you don't have that one

gritty cargo
#

Yeah we were in Cat Ba and took a bus directly to Ninh Binh

#

To go to Hanoi would’ve cost us more time

#

But I really dislike Hanoi so to go all the way back up for that section would probably be wasteful; it’d take more than a day by train or a flight to Hanoi. If I fly I’d end up in Ninh Binh, meaning I’d probably have to go back to Hanoi to fly out of there anyway

100% laos and combodja as well?

gritty cargo
#

Yes

#

100% Cambodia might happen

#

100% Laos probably not because of a small railway line across the border to Thailand (I was literally at that border station on the Thai side before I left Thailand) but I reckon 95%+ must be doable

#

because in both countries it's otherwise just 1 single railway line iirc

gritty cargo
warm basalt
#

Are there trains there

gritty cargo
#

yes, twice a day, but it's not super convenient to cross into Thailand because my plan is literally to go the other direction, into China

#

but I will definitely 100% one day, I only have to go from Laos to Thailand or vice versa, maybe next year. Thailand 100% is way more of a challenge because Thailand actually has branch lines and junctions. They have a proper network. Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam basically only have one or two railway lines and they all originate from the capital city

The times for the direct bus to Luang Prabang are known and it’s even 3 times cheaper than that damn Tuktuk
