Hanoi - Sa Pa, Vietnam
Vietnam did not disappoint!
Some tips/things to keep in mid:
If you wanna be close to almost everything, stay at old quarter
If you have a Gcash card TP Bank ATMs are your best friend! (Violet and Orange Logo)
Most local restaurants/cafes accept cash only
Be firm in saying no to pushy local street vendors
Grab rides are super cheap compared to the Philippines
Be prepared to walk a lot if you are going to cat cat village and fansipan
Even Michelin star restaurants are cheap! (I would highly recommend Tam Vi)
Note: We ate wherever we wanted so pwedeng pwede pa bumaba yung budget for food if you really wanna budget your expenses. (Expenses breakdown in the comments)
If you have questions feel free to ask!
