Myanmar Travel Vlog: Irrawaddy River Cruise with Kara and Nate Part II

February 16, 2020 by Elizabeth Leave a Comment

Myanmar Cruise with Kara and Nate

Travel vloggers Kara and Nate chartered Paukan Cruises’ Irrawaddy Explorer river boat in Myanmar for their group tour of November of 2019. In this vlog, part II of our week-long Irrawaddy River cruise between Bagan and Mandalay, I pick up the book The Glass Palace by Amitav Ghosh in the ship’s lending library and discover locations along our route that relate to the book.
