Sa Pa ft Cat Cat Village, Vietnam

Hello, here's part 2 of my 3D2N trip at Sa Pa, read the first part, if you hadn't. So here's day two in Sapa. Oh, before i forget, here's a few tips i got for people who are interested in visiting Sa Pa (probably more applicable in December cause that's when i went there, i'm not too sure about the other months because there are four seasons in Sa Pa):

1. Wear/ bring waterproof everything, shoes especially. It drizzles all the time. It rained every single day when i visited. There were no heavy rain with thunderstorms luckily, or else it would be super scary, at least to me lol. I saw people wearing plastic covers over their shoes, that reaches their knees. But those looks unpractical to me if you're walking a lot because the floor might be slippery and the plastic has no grip. Also, they look funny lol. My shoes were soaking, my socks were soaked too, i'm gonna tell you very frankly, it sucks to be walking around in the cold, with cold damp socks.

2. Get a transparent umbrella. It's the best way to take a photo in the rain. As i've mentioned in point #1, it drizzles all the time, a conventional umbrella or raincoat doesn't really look flattering in photos. Transparent umbrellas are pretty IG worthy too if you ask me haha.

3. Use metered taxis. I guess this applies everywhere. The taxis will "offer" you a certain price, but don't, cause it's (probably a lot) more than what you need to pay them.

On our second day in Sa Pa, we visited Cat Cat Village. We walked there because we're young & energetic hahahaa. Living the backpacker's life you know. I actually prefer walking during vacations because i feel like i get to explore more, but of course, only if the weather is cold, haha, if it's hot and humid, i'll prefer a car ride please and thank you.
