In January 2015, Nara Pech marked his recent college graduation by embarking on a three-week journey through Southeast Asia with two close friends. However, only a week into the trip, upon reaching Laos, the 28-year-old wanted to cut his vacation short. His friends, assuming he boarded a plane back to Canada, left him at the airport.

Tragically, this decision marked the final time anyone laid eyes on Nara alive. His demise unfolded in a harrowing manner within the bustling confines of the airport restaurant, yet no witnesses surfaced, nor did any bystanders capture the incident on video. Additionally, Laotian authorities will not release the full surveillance footage.

Airport officials hastily concluded that Nara took his own life, yet the available evidence contradicts this assertion. The circumstances surrounding Nara Pech's demise in the Laos airport remain shrouded in mystery, prompting speculation and questions about what truly transpired.

Listen as we dive into Southeast Asia, the case of Nara Pech, and how to stay alive on vacation.
