About this blog

Well guys, if backpacking was an art I'd be Michelangelo (not the ninja turtle).

Anyway...here is my travel with a semi-planned itinerary including Singapore, Bali, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Phuket (and other smaller islands such as Phi Phi), Bangkok, Chang Mai, Vientiane, Siem Reap, Phnom Phen, Hanoi, Ho Chi Min City (Saigon), Manila, Hong Kong.

With this I can only hope that you may enjoy my adventures even half as much as I will because that will be plenty.

Enjoy and Ciao from Mambo Italiano
