I'm off to Vietnam for two weeks in August on an adventure hol, heard good reports about the Country and even better its a good excuse to watch all those films with people killing each other, oh and can highly recommend a book i've just finished about one mans escape from the Vietcong called The Cage.
For all things Italiano..I would suggest Ischia...lesser known cousin to Capri...mostly Italian mainlanders on holiday..not many Brits....service as a profession of respect which can hardly be found in many countries....early morning ferry across the Bay of Naples (do not forget your camera) ..one of those subliminal moments that you can mostly only capture in a glossy magazine photoshot...but don't sit downwind of the smokestack 
...Barolo on the terrace about 7.30pm ..it just doesn't get better than this
