I lived in rural Viet Nam for a year and traveled to many places. Almost everyone I met was warm and friendly like this woman. In cafes, on planes, in parks, almost everywhere I went, people would join me to chat and offer me food. I even got invited to stranger's weddings. My Vietnamese was very basic but we often communicated well with very little shared language. I highly recommend it to anyone as one of the best places to travel in the world. It is especially wonderful when you get away from the tourist areas into the back streets of the cities or to the rural areas.

Unfortunately, I don’t know Vietnamese or Chinese… Because I would fly over there specifically to hang out with grandma. She seems like she would be a blast to sit down and talk to about her life and growing up. Chris, you are very blessed. Savor every single moment and live every second of every day to the fullest. Never take anything for granted, and when you get a chance to love… Love with every ounce of your heart. We all only have so much time on this earth. So we need to spend it as freely and open as possible. Drink every drop of life in and don’t miss one experience. Because we never know when that experience will be our last.

Got the opportunity to visit Vietnam back in 2019 (not to Ho Chi Minh City though but Hanoi) by train for a summit and absolutely loved it. Chinese influence in Vietnam isn't surprising when you know the history. The Vietnamese language was historically written in Chữ Nôm, which is a logographic script that uses Chinese characters. But they ended up changing to a Latin script as a result of French colonization (though the language is still very much influenced by Chinese on top of French). The ancient Chinese brought cultural, religious and philosophical thought to Vietnam, where the Vietnamese gradually developed and adapted on its own

[@omg.mesohungry]

Funny thing about it though: we Vietnamese call your grandfather Kim Il-sung in Sino-Vietnamese reading "Kim Nhật Thành" (金日成), while referring to your father and you as just Kim Jong-Il and Kim Jong-Un instead of "Kim Chính Nhật" (金正日) and "Kim Chính Ân" (金正恩) respectively.

We were either sitting at home talking and snacking on things from the market, going to the market to browse, or cooking a meal for her family (8 people every night). Everything was done deliberately and with ease whereas a lot of American households bicker about food prep or where to eat, what to eat. They were most hospitable and reserved.

Grandmas around the world are to be cherished. Even if they occasionally say something slightly racist or bring you food when you say you aren't hungry. Miss you grandma.

As a Vietnamese born in Europe I've always had lots of difficulties to learn vietnamese.. 40 years later I can't barely speak it.. just a few words.. and all my nephews and little cousins born here are even worse than me.. they don't understand a single word.. I'm impressed with his level.. i may not speak my own language but I can tell his vietnamese is amazing...

[@nicholas4436]

Viet born in Aus and same situation :( I've been learning on and off for 7 years and I can't understand/speak basic sentences. I don't even know how to properly say I/you because of the pronoun system -_- Vietnamese is severely underrated in terms of it's difficulty to learn and would probably rank harder than Mandarin if it weren't for the difficulty of Chinese characters.
