My last picture from Thailand already, a complete empty Phra Nang beach in the morning after camping there the night before. The first peeps to come in were some monkeys trying to steal my stuff! :)

This is the last picture from my Guatemala Collection.

Volcán de Agua in the early morning hours, taken from Acatenango.

Looking down from the Pagoda on top of Mount Zwegabin in Myanmar's Hpa-an region offers some incredible views into the wide landscape below. It was possible for tourists to sleep on top with the monks until a French backpacker committed suicide a few months ago. Luckily, they made an exception for me and I could enjoy the sunrise in the morning as well!

It is incredible to witness the fishing techniques on inle lake in Myanmar. Keeping balance on a long thin boat with just one leg while stearing it with the other while fishing at the same time... Wow!

Another sunrise at Bagan in Myanmar. Every single time I had to get out of bed extra early because I was hitch hiking into the temple area and every time it was worth the effort!

Just one of many caves in Laos: Tham Poukham near the backpackers hub Vang Vieng. This one is fairly small but if you have the right equipment you can venture into the dark parts. I didn't go there but still had a great time wandering around and capturing the incoming light from the entrance!

The stunning rock formation seen from the main bridge in the tiny village of Pha Tang. This was actually one of my favorite places in terms of landscapes in Laos!

Tayrona National Natural Park in Colombia

Great landscapes with jungles right next to the ocean paired with awesome bouldering, what else could I wish for?!

Kuang Si Waterfall near Luang Prabang in Laos. I came here with high expectations and was not let down, truly a great piece of nature and worth the effort. Just don't take the horse if you don't mind wading through a river to get there.

A beautiful sunset at Palomino Beach in northern Colombia. Most people come here for tubing down the tranquil river, but its also a great spot to catch the sunset reflections!

The Ha Long Bay is probably the most iconic landmark of Vietnam. Despite not being so lucky with the weather, it was still breathtaking to pass all these majestic peaks rising out of the water. This picture was taken just after departure of the public ferry going to Cat Ba.

The amazing Ban Gioc Waterfall in Vietnam. It takes a bit of time to get there and China is right on the other side of the river! Totally worth it, one of the best waterfalls I have seen in all of Asia!

The simply stunning reflections at night make Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddin one of my favorite mosques on the world! I would say it is the main reason to visit Brunei's capital Bandar Seri Begawan.
