My Flying Visit to Myanmar: Gold, Kindness, and Quiet Strength
Myanmar wasn’t originally on my Southeast Asia itinerary, but curiosity and a friend’s invitation led me there. Between golden pagodas, red betel-stained smiles, and the gentle kindness of its people, Yangon revealed a side of beauty few travelers get to see. From the glittering Shwedagon Pagoda to circular train rides through rice fields, I discovered a country scarred by history yet rich in spirit, flavour, and grace.
