📍Da Lat, Vietnam Đà Lạt (Da Lat) is nicknamed City of Love. For me, it was City of Friendship as I got to visit and enjoyed the city for the first time in my life with my two best friends, Tien and My Anh. We took a bus that has beds instead of seats for our journey. It was so much fun and helpful for my friends with motion sickness. We booked a gorgeous homestay and rented two motorcycles for the trip.
Da Lat is also the city of my dad’s childhood memories. He grew up there during the end of France’s era in Vietnam. He described it as romantic, mysterious, cold (it’s a lot colder compared to Ho Chi Minh City), but absolutely beautiful. Dad was right! Da Lat today is a mixture of raw nature, historical remains and lively lifestyle. I was born and raised in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. I never really traveled outside of the city during those years. Now that I am older, I want to explore the country of my roots and reserve the family stories that I continue to discover, whenever I have the chance. That was my Christmas 2018, how was yours? A different beauty of Vietnam that I never knew of!
