  • 5 - My 2 weeks in Ho Chi Minh City

    In this episode, I talk about my 2 weeks stay in HCMC where I covered a Workshop, took part in a Donation Camp, roamed about the city, went to Vung Tau, etc. Hope you enjoy it. :) 

    About me,  I am Pragyan Bezbaruah from Guwahati, Assam.

    I left my full-time job and with a really small amount of money, I travelled Vietnam for 84 days. I volunteered, stayed with the monks, couch-surfed the country from HCMC to Hanoi - covering 7 cities. I taught more than 150 students and made a lot of friends, visited a lot of families along the way. A lot of stories to tell.

    And the best part is - this series will be totally in Assamese with some English here and there. Joi Aai Oxom - hoi ne nai :)
    So let's get started, shall we?

    (P.S. Stay Tuned because in the next episode I will be telling you my experience in Da Lat - the romantic city of Vietnam. )
