Sturdy footwear is always a plus when carrying a backpack but sandles are nice to have when just walking around the city sightseeing.
Tampons are not readily available in Vietnam. If you need 'em, bring 'em.
A wide angle makes it easier to squeeze that whole temple in and at the market, a zoom is essential for taking candid shots of the hawkers.
A great travel partner like D makes any trip that much better. Thanks D. Leave a Comment

Make sure you have a hat, sunblock and water bottle that you carry with you at all times. If you can get a carry case that is a "cooler" even better especially if you are travelling around August when we were!

For shoppers, do remember to bring a big bag to contain all your shopping "rewards"! I really mean it. There's so much to buy - so try to travel light so that you can bring back lots of shopping memories home!
Well, if you are travelling between Dec and Mar, do note that the weather can be cooling in Hoi An. Bring some warm clothing and yes, remember to pack a raincoat or umbrella, it is monsoon season. Leave a Comment

Bring or buy an extra bag if you plan on having lots of clothes or shoes made
Lightweight long pants/capris and shirts that cover shoulders - it's quite hot and shorts and tank tops are not really appropriate (despite the number of tourists I've seen in them). It also gets cool at night, and with the mosquitoes, it's nice to cover up but not the end of the world if you don't.
Mosquito repellant and anti-itch cream! This was the only place in SE Asia that mosquitoes were a problem for us this time of year - we'd been expecting it more in Laos but were thankfully free of them until we got to Hoi An.
Bring batteries and/or battery charger! In both Hanoi and Hoi An, I realized that after a couple of battery purchases, there are lots of people selling used batteries. I finally found a camera shop that sold Energizers in their original packaging. They tried to sell me a package that had been opened and then retaped, so make sure the original packaging is intact. The batteries that come shrink wrapped and without any other packaging are likely to be used batteries.
