Farming in Paradise: A Journey of Beauty and Resilience

[@wendiland]

Which part of the story resonated with you the most? 😊💚

[@chickeNblood]

I like it all. Now I can go watch videos of water buffalos. I love the view of the fields. Also hope miracles for those boatmen.

[@SkylarHayes]

I like understanding about the ecosystem, natural watering, and how they farm with the land/environment they have. Very great video, you got some amazing shots!

[@wendiland]

@@chickeNblood Thank you. Viet is amazing! Last year Vietnam had a really bad drought. Hope this will be a better year for them.

[@wendiland]

@@SkylarHayes Thank you! It was really interesting learning from a local especially one who has been around long enough to see how the place evolved.

[@SkylarHayes]

@@wendiland Quite the opposite of small-space gardening :) But food for the soul!

Beautiful scenery with karst geology. I love your Vietnamese travel episodes. I want to go there now.

[@wendiland]

Happy to hear as I enjoy making them! Hope you get out there to see sometime. As I said digital images does not do it justice. Those karst caves is what makes this place so unique.

Quite interesting. It is very beautiful scenery and I can only imagine the difficulty of transporting a crop to market over such a wet and rugged terrain. Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful day.

[@wendiland]

The terrain is definitely more difficult there especially climate change has made it even more challenging especially for farming in the recent years. This is such a special place. 🙏🫶

Interesting video These farmers seem very resilient. Thanks for sharing!

[@wendiland]

Yes they are! Often living in the present rather than the past. Thank you for watching!

The caves. I visited Phong Nha two years ago. The people told me about hiding in the caves during the war and having to farm at night to avoid being bombed. Terrible stories from wonderful people. Much love and respect, and many thanks, to Vietnam from Vancouver Island 🙇🏻🫶🏻

[@wendiland]

Hello Vancouver! Lots of interesting stories and it shows how resilient Vietnamese are. Can’t imagine those dark scary days of farming in the dark.

How fun. It looks beautiful over there.

[@wendiland]

Was so hot and humid, but so fun! :D

[@wranther]

Beautiful tour Wendi! Real pretty landscape with its lush green plants / trees and limestone hillsides. Good thing there is no prohibition on texting while rowing over there! lol Looking forward to your next stunning adventures. -Bob...

[@GardenAndgrow]

Beautiful. I want to visit Vietnam one day

[@charlesn.5501]

Wow, it's so beautiful there. I wish I could fish that river🎣

[@wendiland]

That would be amazing, I'm sure you can find a spot somewhere. :)

[@Favion]

Happy to hear 😊

[@Anythingforfreedom]

That area is beautiful

Was heaven on earth for me.

I thought you were vietnamese, but apparently not because you needed a translator 🤔

[@wendiland]

I’m not fluent.
