Myanmar (Burma) wasn't originally on my travel list. With an ongoing civil war, it’s generally not recommended to visit. But I've got the opportunity to spend 10 days in Yangon, and I couldn't pass it up. In this video I'll share my experience of visiting Myanmar, focusing more on the everyday life of local people. We'll go for a walk around the city, will have some Burmese food and of course will visit a local supermarket!

It was a fortunate coincidence meeting with Jochen and hearing his story. What he is doing is truly amazing.
