Tet Hols


Nothing much to update but got a few things to share. CNY's hols, I went to vietnam and it was great experience and it also opened my eyes. The weather is still the same, hot as here but during night time, soft breeze in the air. I thought that vietnam is a poor country since communist ruled them but I was wronged. Nowadays, people there are totally modern and dress like western people. Unfortunately, not all can speak english. A few bunch who involve in tourism they can speak well even though not fluent but still we can understand it. For them, do not know english is not a problem at all. I went to one of the famous market where everything are under one roof. From pig intestine till household things are sold in here. I know pig intestine is a nasty example but I'm not joking, they sell it there anyway. Seller there, they can speak few words in different language to attract customer so like I said english is not a problem for them to communicate with tourists.

One thing I noticed about them, their civic minded are very low. Some of them, they just don't care. They can pee anywhere they like. People like me, wear scarf, frightened them sometimes and they will avoid us. Even when you line up for elevator, they just dont care. They will squash their body in first and dont give a damn whether you already in or half way.Pretty sad but I guess I know what really drive them to act like that. Maybe because of war back on those days where they need to be selfish to save their life but I dont know its just my assumption. But of course, some people still nice to us.

Me, I would say, this trip is really horrible and awful but its a great experience though. Its my first time visiting 3rd world country so fair enough to say that. If you ever wondering to go there, I would recommend to do so but please dont go there during tet holiday (new lunar year) coz everyone will go on holiday and everything will close and you'll regret it.

So many things to say about vietnam but I have a lot of things to do at the moment. So till next time we continue, ciao!
