Laos

Laos is a beautiful, calm, relax country that is not over touristy yet, which is why many backpackers become a fan. The food is a mix of everything around it from Vietnamese style pho soups, to stir fry, som tam thailand style salad, meat skewers, and more. 
Also, just like the surrounding countries, the further you travel north, the more beautiful the scenery becomes. But one must rough out the terrible endless bus rides through the peaky mountains to get there. This is also the famous place of drunken tubing down a lazy river, stopping at riverside bars along the way, where sadly many young people die from just those combinations. That wasn't for me. 

Local Monks collecting food offerings, (mostly sticky rice) from the locals, which happens every day at 5am. This happens in Luang Prabang, northern Laos.

I feel not many people know about, or know where is Laos
