postdoc India: Yangon Day 288: Welcome to Myanmar

Nova parada i nou país!!! Ja tenia ganes de tornar a canviar de país i de tornar a Àsia!!! No nomes perque es molt mes barat sinó perque el sentiment d'aventura es perd una mica en països occidentals!! Myanmar fa 4 anys que ha obert la frontera a turistes, l'aeroport es com si aterresssis a l'aeroport de Girona (i Yangon es el motor econòmic del país)!!!! Ja amb passaport nou i visat acceptat temps d'explorar aquest nou país que tothom m'ha recomanat de fer ara absn que canvii i es converteixi en súper turístic!!! Aterro en mig d'una tempesta immensa, i al mati no puc fer res de la pluja que cau!! A la tarda amb uns de l'alberg ens escapem a Schwedagon Pagoda on just avui celebren la lluna plena i està ple de gom a gom!! Ens fan comprar un sarong pq anem amb pantalons curts!!!

New stop and new country!! I was looking forward to changing country and coming back to Asia!! Not only as it is much cheaper also because you loose the feeling of adventure when traveling western countries!!! Myanmar's border has been open for 4 years to tourism, the airport is like landing in Girona airport (and Yangon is the economical engine of the country)!!! Already with new passport and visa granted time to explore this new country that everybody recommended to go now before it becomes too touristy!!! I land in the middle of a storm, and in the morning I can't do anything beecause of so much rain!! In the afternoon with people of the guesthouse we go to Schwedagon Pagoda where today they are celebrating the full moon and is crowded!! They make us buy a sarong ass we can't enter in shorts!!
