Hooray! I spent a month traveling around Myanmar a few years ago and I really enjoyed it. My recommendations: - Dress modestly, i.e. without shorts and remember to cover your arms or provide yourself with a scarf/pareo for visiting pagodas. Shoes with Velcro, such as flip flops, are a good solution because you can't wear shoes in pagodas. - Check restaurant reviews! Burmese cuisine can be really good or really bad. - I fell in love with Bagan and with trekking from Kalaw to Inle Lake. - The journey can be very tiring, especially traveling by land. Roads are narrow, winding and still being built manually. Also make sure that you get visas for all the countries before you set off!
Posted: November 7, 2022There has been an increase in pickpockets and theft while on public transportation. Sometimes empty streets. There has been reports of people being put at knife point and having their phones taken by 2 or more robbers. It's not happening everyday, but it has certainly become a thing to look out for. Everything else is fine. Safe to walk around during the day.

I’m 20-years old Muslim girl, from Myanmar 🇲🇲, a country next to Thailand. I’m looking for a female friend who wants a long and genuine friendship. It’s okay if she’s from another country, as long as she can speak English. I really hope we can meet in real life one day because I want to travel with her. The only thing is that she should be single since if she has a boyfriend, she’ll need to give him her time. I just want a true friend who’ll explore the world with me.
