White Thai village of Sa Linh from where we
commence a 3-hour trek to the village of Hang
Kia. Our hosts for this evening will be the
H'mong minority people. Whilst enjoying their

about their lives and culture. Tonight's
accommodation could probably be a little more
rustic than you would be used to.

Village, home of the White Thai people. The trek

village by mid to late afternoon there will be

and toast our good health and happiness.
