I have just recently returned back to America and in the process of adapting to the time zone as well as the lifestyle here again, but while I am at it, I want to share some footage from my vacation in Vietnam and Korea during Winter break. I also have a video that I shot and edited while in Vietnam. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-ZaEVnkNcU

1. South Korea – A Dream Come True

South Korea had always been my dream country to travel to because I liked the entertainment system they had. It took me awhile to achieve this goal due to budget and my fears of facing cultural and language barriers.

I have never been to South Korea and this story will describe my first trip in the country. I am very impressed of the cities, people, and culture.

I have had a chance to experience the suburban area in South Korea as well as Seoul, the capital and the largest metropolis. Also, I got to visit an elementary school, something not everyone does when they make a trip to South Korea.

Through a series of photographs, I am hoping to provide my travelling experiences to everyone. It was an interesting experience for me to just being in the country itself.

Subway is the most common public transportation used in South Korea. And it’s actually clean, really clean.

2. Vietnam – Where it all Began

I was born in Vietnam and moved to America when I was 15. It has been 10 years.

I was once a kid who did not care about my future, failed in school countless of times, stayed back, and did not care about anyone but myself.

People tell me that I have better opportunities here in America. That still stands true considering I have changed dramatically in both behavior wise and academic wise comparing to the person I was once back in Vietnam.

I have changed for the better, but Vietnam will forever have a spot in my heart. Because home is where it is.

This trip has made me realized what is really important to me and that I want to share my knowledge to Vietnam one day, more specifically, in media field.

Through another series of photographs, I am hoping to introduce with everyone about my hometown, Saigon / Ho Chi Minh City and my experience in Vietnam.
