Morning, 6 o'clock in Sapa. It's really cold. Around 10 degrees. I'm standing in the cold with my two jackets. The crowd gradually disperses. Only me and one other person are still standing there. No one picks me up. What now? No one there felt responsible either. So I called the hostel where I booked. After waking them up, they made a phone call and then it worked out.

Despite the season and the fog, this place is magical. At that time, I was very upset that I wasn't here in October, when it's harvest time and everything shines in light green. However, now looking at the pictures, it's still a beautiful place.

It was difficult to decide which of the 160 pictures to upload. Each one is more beautiful than the other.
