Saigon - Vietnamese adventures

Vietnam's one of my fav countries in the world

with its interesting culture and amazing history.

It's a pity we didnt get to see other cities besides Saigon

bt the food n history was enough to lure me back for more!

Boating along the Mekong River.

A true experience just getting to know their vietnamese way of life

along the river, how fishermen make a living

the housing along the delta.

The singer performed some traditional songs

n had us swaying to the melody

Night food market

the excellent mussels

fried with garlic n absolutely tasty

best hotpot i had in life

Cu chi tunnels.

we took a US$5 daytrip (unbelievably cheap) to the rural areas

to witness some of the historical sites

that were sobering stories of the painful past.

getting into the narrow tunnel

where refugees hid for days

i cld barely enter..

so claustrophobic n dark

story of Ho Chi Minh

the streets of Saigon

filled with scooters 

we enjoyed every single meal in Saigon

this last meal took us forever to find

bt it was so worth it.

Pho with springrolls and many crispy ingredients

that made a simple dish taste so good.
