so what is it??.. what's the first thing that come 2 mind when u heard the 2 words Viet Nam??.. is it the land? is it the people? the history? or is it the food *yum*.. well, 4 me it's my hometown n the beautiful beaches that stretch miles from north 2 south, n obviously all the heroine + heros!!

Two words: Da Nang.

Foods Foods!!! let nha^.u

For me it used to mean painful memories, blood and suffering.
Now..it means new beginnings, life and love.

Hehhehehe... that's what most Americans think, even my friends think that way, too.

For me its the Mekong delta and women in conical hats steering their canoes on the tranquil river and tributaries. Don't get me wrong, my family used to live in Saigon, District one to be exact.

Well before the 1960's Vietnam to America was just another place on the other side of the world. By the late 1970's it was a world that would never be forgotten.

ah so we suppose to thanks the u.s for brought us here? that's what i think so.

Ah..sorry didn't catch that..it was only half understandable English.

okay.

What are you try'n to say my little cambodian friend?

thats what I was trying to figure out.

. Lets not try too hard to figure out what he's try'n to say. It'll just make us more confused.

American GIs and Viet Congos...

How can anyone take this seriously?
Go somewhere else and play.

For me, beautiful Viet Nam would translate to young Vietnamese students in their white ao dais.

How can you take anyone who says "Viet Congos" seriously?

What's wrong with him thinking of American G.I.'s and Viet Congs when he hears "Vietnam"?

Fo realz.

Sorry for my ghettoness, I miss my Bay Area.

i c u have a thing for "gai que" eh??.. anyway, i do love them too!!

: so wat do u c Trang??.. our "Than Kim Qui"? :obviously i haven't read through everything... imma own 1 of those white ao dai this summer !! woo hoo!!

this is SOO UNEXPECTED of u Tuan..


bAo... I'm eating.. lau su phu

Of course Thank Kim Qui, I'm going to visit him this Christmas, it's official!

But Hy, I see this when I think beautiful Viet Nam.

it is beautiful.. so innocent and fill with love i suppose...

Ha Long bay



Are there any other beautiful scenaries like this in Vietnam?

I think the most romantic phase a Vietnamese person go through is "Tuoi Hoc Tro", and those white ao dais cannot describe it any better.

There's a website called www.tuoihoctro.com, and there are bunch of Vietnamese high school students in it. It's pretty cool, but I don't know what to write in there though. They use too much Vietnamese slang terms.

how sad.. u lost the Viet touch...

Well, I don't know what to write in there, they're all using words like:

wa = qua
choài = trời

How am I supposed to understand? Why can't they just use simple Da Nang language? Heheheeh....

I would refrain too, regular Vietnamese is difficult enough, let alone slang? Yikes. Thanks for the site Tuan, I'll check it out nonetheless.

Here are more if you guys want to check out the how Vietnamese teenagers write these days, those kids need some serious help with their spellings and grammar in Vietnamese. Hheehheehhe....

tuoihoctro.com
muctim.com

To be continued...

we write slang sometime 2!!... anyway, i can usually understand them fine...

More Ha Long Bay...

Da Nang











That's it for now...

Gotta love the Phuong flower too...

it reminds me of school in VN...

I miss Vietnam

Tuan, you're boring me with Da Nang dude. Too much mentioning is not neccessarily a good thing. Now Da Nang got one less tourist (that's me). Unless you stop, I won't think of going there anymore... muahahahha

^ maybe he'll refer 2 it as an hour south of Hue...

This picture looks familiar, I think it's from a movie called "Three Seasons" or something.

Ha Tien, in Southern VN

I been here and it's beautiful!

The history with Americans god damnit!

oh and me so horny prostitiutes :P

Saigon....

I've never been to any other place in vietnam except Saigon and Vung Tau (Vung Tau is very near to Saigon though)

But again, I think Saigon is the most beautiful city in vietnam (but not as historic as Hanoi), and Vung Tau has very beautiful beach.
