Usually when I travel I do not hire local guides or drivers because I like to explore the city on my own. Solo adventure often results in getting lost, discovering new places, and meeting new people along the way. I employed a different strategy in Bago and ended up having a great time. This is the first of a few videos I will share from Bago before making a detailed post about my experience in this city. In this video, we are riding a motorcycle through downtown.

I am back from a whirlwind three week trip through Southeast Asia and will have many great posts for you in the coming days. Check out this video of the Burmese railway as a teaser for some of the great footage I will have in the coming days and weeks.
