Sometimes when you visit a new place things are just so outside of your expectations and comfort zone that you just loose it.
That happened to us in Myanmar.
Twice.
We’ve had a wonderful time during our stay in Burma, but along the way, there were moments where both of us were tempted to storm out of our guesthouses. Heather to find a better place to stay, and mine to just leave the country entirely (Mine was a little more extravagant).
In both cases, we managed to keep it together and find a way to make it work, but getting there was a little tough.
Today Heather and I detail our respective freakouts because we do, after all, strive to entertain you. And what better way than to talk about our own mishaps?

Great podcast! Have been searching for your Myanmar destination guide podcast, but can’t find anything. Did you ever end up recording one?
@Matt – Not yet, but I guess it’s time to add it to the list. We did shoot a video about it though, so check it out here:
Top 10 Things to do in Myanmar (in under 2 minutes)
Great stories. We honeymooned in Myanmar, and Mandalay is a hard city to navigate, and there is not much to do, however, we did have good food at some off the beaten path restaurants. We stayed at Rupar Mandaly resort and just up the block from there was a great restaurant, it was near an auto place. I dod not remember the name food was incredible and were the people who worked there, and maybe $10 a person for a 4 course meal. Mandalay hill is a great place to go to at night. Wish I was there now.
@Joseph- Wow, you honeymooned in Myanmar. That’s an interesting choice! Wish I had gotten a hold of you before we went, not having good food was one of my main reasons for freaking out (as you know).
Overall though, so glad we went, it really was unique and authentic!
Just two? Seemed like it was one after another when I went to that place.
@thepointsoflife- Yeah, well, just two major ones. But day after day, things popped up or we just questioned why we were traveling there. And then, we’d go see something amazing, and be like “oh right, that’s why!” It’s a roller coaster, but well worth it. What were some of your freakouts?
