Welcome....

...and thank you for dropping in. This site is first and foremost a personal site to keep friends and relatives informed of what I am doing, and of what is going on in my neck of the woods.

My main interest is traveling and birding, but I also like running. The links above should be pretty self-explanatory, feel free to explore.

I value any comments, criticisms, and suggestions you may have, drop me a line at hannostamm(at)hannostamm.com.

Latest update 10th of July:

The report of our Trip to Thailand is up, along with a photo gallery.

The trip report is here: Khao Yai and Huai Kha Khaeng.

What, it's all about birds then, is it then???

Admittedly, my main interest is birding. However, even the non-birder should find plenty of interest here, as I try to give information on as many aspects of my trips as I can.

When traveling, I do like a good feed and a cold brew, there is usually information on that as well. Keep in mind that things change though, don't come crying to me if the beer was 5 Cents more expensive than what I said it was in my report.

On the birding page you will also find a link to general information on traveling in Vietnam, or you can get there directly by following this link:

Birding and traveling in Vietnam

Thailand once again with our friends, with visits to Khao Yai and Huai Kha Khaeng.	It is actually pretty easy to escape the hordes in Vietnam, as most people just follow the standard itinerary. Here is a trip that Ha and I took to Ca Mau.	The Galleries are, once again, often biased towards birding, but not exclusively so. They do actually cover a wide range of subjects, from culture to the latest exploits of the Can Tho Hash House Harriers (if you don't know who, or what, the Hash is, follow the link on top).

This is probably going to get updated whenever I have time, and feel like it. Haven't really decided yet if I will stick to a particular topic or just ramble along.	The next R*ns will be: 28th of June, meet at 15:00 outside the hotel. 16th of July in Da Lat.	For a full list, check the Links page, below a link that I recently stumbled upon, and/or which I particularly like. This tour company specializes i birding tours in Vietnam. The owner, Richard Craik, has birded here for years and you have a good chance of seeing the local specialties.
