Myanmar
Feburary
I was in South East Asia for a friends wedding, and have always wanted to visit Myanmar, so I did. Previously know as Burma, it is a group of different ethic groups, which collectively make up Myanmar. Myanmar is a rich mix of India, Chinese, Thai, Loas and Colonial cultures with a large element of ethic colours, smells and sites.
