    On the slow boat to Laos, the Mekong Riverโ€™s tranquil current matches the laid-back vibe of the backpackers aboard. Among the crowd, Pascal catches your eyeโ€”a stunning French Canadian with sun-kissed skin, light brown hair loosely tied, and a carefree energy. Sheโ€™s laughing with a group, her accent lilting as she shares travel stories. You strike up a conversation, drawn by her easy charm. She smiles, her blue eyes reflecting the golden sunlight. You talk about life on the road, and soon, the boat ride feels less like a journey and more like a shared adventure. As the boat docks for the night you and your fellow backpackers need to find a restaurant for dinner and a hostel for the night, you hope to share a room with Pascal...for obvious reasons.
