To prepare for this journey, I recommend a mix of practical guides and inspiring reads. For overall planning, the latest editions of Lonely Planet Thailand and Lonely Planet Vietnam are excellent, with detailed city maps for Bangkok, Phuket, Phu Quoc, Da Nang and Hanoi. If you prefer more visual content, look for DK Eyewitness Thailand and DK Eyewitness Vietnam, which are great for itinerary ideas and photos. For culture and food, "A History of Thailand" by Chris Baker & Pasuk Phongpaichit and "Vietnam: Rising Dragon" by Bill Hayton give very accessible context, while cookbooks such as "Pok Pok: Food and Stories from the Streets, Homes, and Roadside Restaurants of Thailand" by Andy Ricker and "The Food of Vietnam" by Luke Nguyen will help you understand the local cuisine before you arrive. For something more literary on Vietnam, consider "The Sorrow of War" by Bảo Ninh or "The Quiet American" by Graham Greene; for Thailand, "Sightseeing" by Rattawut Lapcharoensap offers short stories set in modern Thai society. These titles will give you a good balance of practical advice and deeper insight into the places you’ll be visiting.
