I decided to take the train to dong hoi and I'm glad I did because the scenery was beautiful. I sat opposite a very nice vietnamese girl who was learning english and we had a lovely conversation about our different cultures and how she would like to be a teacher. Once she got off the train at hue a grandpa took her place and we enjoyed each others company despite not exchanging one word. He read his paper and I read my book and we exchanged smiles occasionally. We finally arrived at dong hoi and he helped me off the train and said 'goodbye'. It was a very pleasant journey. I arrived at the hostel and was greeted by the friendly staff and heard about all the caves and beautiful scenery.
