My new group mates fer the next semester:
L-R: Mun Chun, Duong, Co Seng, Me, Trang, Yang Han and Adeline embarked on a 9 day study-trip to Vietnam!
Here's a peek at a few of the many reasons why our 9 day trip to Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh was fabulous!
No.1:
The swanky shophouse Blue Paradise Hotel we stayed in!
Fer one, my room fer 3 girls had the following:
* 2 Queen-sized and a Super-single bed
* Desktop
* Balcony
* 2 Sofas
* Free Wifi
The only boon: Climbing up 5 storeys every single day.....
No.1.1:
Breakfast at hotel's lobby!
Pho Ga (like Sg's Kway Teow) and ommelette with bread!
No.2:
THE FOOD OF COURSE..
Value fer Money.
Almost every type of food has to be dipped into fish sauce which enhances the taste..
Top of my list is Saigon Spring rolls and Duong's mom cooked superyummilicious ones! (O yes, we stayed over at his house fer 3 nights at HCMC!)
No. 3:
It was 5 meals every single day!
Breakfast, TEA, lunch, TEA and dinner..
The most mememorable?
The first photo where we sat on newspapers at an open space ordering drinks from illegal VENdors (pun intended) who ran away when the traffic police came.
No.4:
Their quaint architecture and culture.
This one here's Hanoi's famed Water Puppet Show.
No.5:
The trip to Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum to visit his embalmed body in a glass case.
On the last night, Richard treated us to seafood dinner again.
Last but not least, as the Visa ad goes, 'Traffic is (indeed!) a Killer'!
Stress levels rose exceptionally high while walking along the streets of Hanoi.
With a close shaved accident once and food poisoning striking my group mates down one by one, I felt so blessed to have enjoyed the trip and lived to tell the tale..
With this, I salute to you, Till We Meet Again Comrades!
P.S: Photo inset was instructed by tutor! Mock Horror. -.-
