...although I'm not a polyglot I like languages and learning about them . It seemed curious to learn that Vietnamese alphabet is actually Latin based. The question is: why? The answer is relatively simple apparently - the Vietnamese alphabet called quoc Ngu was introduced by European missionaries. First transcription of Vietnamese tones was done by Francisco de Pina (pt) and finalized by Alexandre de Rhodes (fr) - both mostly active around what is today Hoi An and was back then (in XVII century Vietnamese Alphabet, What Is Today, Transcription, Pina, Missionary, Rhodes, Languages, European

...since the vision of jetlag was quite probable the idea of joining organized trip on the very first day in Vietnam seemed quite rational... though I have to say that ending up with a group approx 40 and only 4 non Asian was quite surprising . Trip to Mekong delta (or Song Cuu Long aka River of Nine Dragons) was on my personal wish list for quite some time. And getting to know a little bit of it even from a very touristic perspective was worth overcoming the jetlag .

An awesome winter trip with @neverlandin and Cliffs of Moher Middle row: 1) -17 degrees somewhere between Schliersee and Tegernsee (Bavaria). Beautiful fresh and at times sunny day 2) The first snowshoes winter hike in Berchtesgaden National Park (Bavaria) 3) Early November hike with (among others) @marmottuss and beautiful golden hour light - Hochgern (Bavaria) Bottom row: 1) Somehow unrealistic Sebensee (Tirol Austria)... and first totally solo hike. Need to do it more often! #viajosola ;) 2) early spring at Schliersee (Bavaria) 3) Chillax 'pause' day during this year's walk from (o)Porto to Santiago.
