4 countries, 3 flights, 7000 miles and 36 hours later I finally arrived in Zurich from a distant Hanoi. It's been a crazy day and a half of travel. First caught a flight from Hanoi to Hong Kong then I had a 12 hour wait over night in the airport before a 12 hour flight to Amsterdam. A 2 hour wait in Schiphol airport before one and half hour flight to Zurich. All I can say is, it's the biggest mission I've completed for quite a while.

Arrived in Zurich at 7.30pm this evening. Very very strange feeling being back in Europe after over 4 months in Asia. Firstly it's still light outside, I'm use to the sun setting between 6-6.30pm. It's mid-summer here, so the sun doesn't set until just before 10pm. Also, the temperature is hot at 30 degree but it's not humid at all. Really pleasant feeling being able to go outside and not sweat buckets. Also, there's no mosquito's which is going to be heaven!!
