A quick travel update (and something useful)
Frequent Traveller News Just a quick update from us. We’re currently travelling Vietnam and have been spending a bit of time in South East Asia again. One thing that always comes up over here is the language barrier. Day to day it is usually fine. Ordering food, getting around, booking things. No issues. But it did get us thinking… What would we actually do if we needed to see a doctor while travelling? Something we looked intoOut of curiosity, we checked what options are available where we are right now. And it turns out there are actually platforms designed for this exact situation. Instead of trying to figure it out on the spot, you can use a service that helps you:
Even where we are now near Da Nang, there are options available, which was honestly reassuring to see. Why this is worth knowingThis is one of those things you do not think about until you need it. And when you do need it, you probably want something simple, clear, and easy to organise. It is just one of those small things that can make travelling feel a lot less stressful. If you want to see how it worksWe put together a quick guide covering the platform we found and how to use it: Find a Doctor While Travelling: Why Air Doctor Makes It Easy Hopefully it is not something you ever need, but definitely worth knowing about before your next trip.

Frequent Traveller News VISIT OUR BLOG | RESOURCES | ABOUT US Hi Reader, Every year we see the same thing in our Facebook groups. Someone books a Christmas beach holiday in Bali or Da Nang, then arrives to grey skies and daily downpours. It’s not bad luck. December and January are when the monsoons split Southeast Asia in two. One coast can be enjoying its best weather of the year while the other is in the middle of its wet season. Having lived in Thailand and Vietnam, we’ve seen both sides...
Frequent Traveller News VISIT OUR BLOG | RESOURCES | ABOUT US Hi Reader, We have just returned to Australia after five months travelling through Asia. We love this lifestyle that allows us to divide our time between travelling the world and being home in the land of kangaroos and beaches. Of course, this lifestyle can get tricky, and our last trip was an example of this. Sickness and an unplanned visa run made us realise just how vulnerable you can be in a foreign land. I began feeling unwell...
Frequent Traveller News VISIT OUR BLOG | RESOURCES | ABOUT US Hi Reader, We are currently in Chiang Mai and enjoying all that this dynamic city has to offer.
