Back on the Road: Global Musings of a Chicana and her Travels

This started as a way to keep in touch with close friends and family while on my first trip off the continental U.S. to Viet Nam in 2009. It became a journal of personal experiences for myself and a sharing of one perspective on Viet Nam, its spectacular country, and beautiful people, for others. Now I have the opportunity to return this summer and to visit another country across the pond- the Philippines, I will continue my postings and bore you once again ;o)

Some more pictures

Rush hour traffic in Ha Noi on a Saturday Night


What we saw one day this past week when we arrived back to the hotel for lunch- talk about fresh chicken!!


My current view from the hotel room.




DRAGONFRUIT!!! Isn't it beautiful?!?



Look closely, the boy has a crab on a string. This reminded me of the stories my mother told me about having beetles as kites.
