Pick Nepal 🇳🇵 if you're going in…

April, May

Book teahouses for Annapurna/Everest Apr & Oct months in advance.

Pick Vietnam 🇻🇳 if you're going in…

February, June, July, August, September

Don't try the whole country in monsoon swing months (Sep–Oct) — coastal weather is unreliable.

Months where both are equally good: January, March, October, November, December.
