Asia

We’ve spent over 3 years in total travelling around Asia and we consider it to be our favourite continent on Earth (so far). The people here are friendly, you almost always feel safe and the landscapes offer everything from grasslands and beaches to mountains and waterfalls. Asia is everything you hoped for and more.
