The reason why I came to Vietnam (besides free Visa) was because I wanted to visit tourism places in Mui Ne. I wanted to visit white sand dune and red sand dune, I found that places were cool.
After packed the whole stuffs, at 6.30am I left the hostel and went to the bus station. Oh forgot, a night before, I was searching for a bus travel from Hanoi-Mui Ne, and I found at the 1st hostel which I used to call my friend when I was arrived in Vietnam.
We both went to the bus station and wait for the bus. After a couple of minutes, the bus came and we walked inside, then picked the seats. The bus was so clean! we even needed to put our shoes inside a plastic bag in front of the driver before coming inside. The seat was very nice, and cold inside. We got a blanket so we can sleep comfortably. We used the bus for almost 6 hours, and it cost only $10 Hanoi-Mui Ne-Hanoi! unbelievable!
I picked the up seat near window, so that I can see higher view inside the bus.
Mui Ne, I am cominggggg!!!
Mui Ne, I am cominggggg!!!
Arrived in Mui Ne, sooo excited!
After arrived, I didn't know which hostel should I choose, I haven't booked any hostel yet. I just knew the price range around $8-$10/night for backpacker style. I knew! So freakin cheap! So we passed by some hostels and found nothing, and then someone offered me to stay at his family homestay, I looked at the homestay picture he showed me and the price was good, so I followed him to the house.
And yes, the room was big, toilet inside, wifi, and with AC! It cost only $8 if i'm not mistaken, soooo cheap! Plus this place is only a minute to the beach! Plus plus, the owner is pretty pretty humble and kind! Oh I'm starting to love Mui Ne!
After praying and unpacked the stuffs, we asked the owner how can I get to the tourism places, and he gave me some options. I chose to use old range rover and visit 4 places: fairy stream, red sand dune, white sand dune, and fishing village. Guest how much I need to pay for renting a car and visit those 4 places? $12!!!
Let's get some fun, Mui Ne!

Day #2 in Mui Ne
Time to go back to Ho Chi Minh. But before I left, I visited the beach close to my homestay, beautiful and peaceful. After 1 hour playing at the beach, went back to the homestay, took a bath, then packed my stuffs all over again.
I know, such a quick time to go :( but never mind, I was very satisfied because yesterday I already visited all places that I wanted to see, alhamdulillah. Brought my carrier all over again and following the owner to the place where I need to take the bus back to Ho Chi Minh, he's very kind!
See you when I see you again, Mui Ne!
