Shopping and administrative work were on today's plan. We prepared our trip to Myanmar and finished the last details for India.
We did spend an hour in a massive Carrefour. It was funny to see locals catching their fish before the fishmonger killed them and cleaned them up.
Preparing for the Journey Ahead
Today was all about logistics - finalizing our Myanmar itinerary, checking visa requirements for India, and stocking up on essentials for the upcoming adventures. Sometimes travel requires these slower, practical days to ensure everything runs smoothly ahead.
Travel Planning Tips for Asia
- Large supermarkets like Carrefour in Chinese cities offer everything you might need for your journey
- Use downtime in cities to finalize visa requirements and travel logistics for upcoming countries
- Stock up on travel essentials in major cities where prices are often better than in tourist areas
- Schedule rest days for administrative tasks - they're essential for long-term travel
