Summary:
Six disabled people ride out on an epic journey along Vietnam's Ho Chi Minh trail to discover a country of contrasts and a place to find themselves. Together they travel over 1,000 miles - three on motorbikes, the others sharing the driving of a 4x4 - through diverse landscapes from jungles and rice fields to ancient cities and remote villages. They visit peaceful monasteries, dramatic caves and landscapes littered with unexploded mines, and meet friendly locals who teach them a poignant Vietnamese motto: just be happy enough. This series highlights the beauty of Vietnam and challenges how the characters view their own disabilities. It's a journey that is emotional and exhilarating, often funny and always life-affirming.
