First Day In Vietnam!

I just arrived in Vietnam late last night after two LONG days of traveling. While I am still very tired and recovering from the long journey, I absolutely love it here so far! The people are so friendly and hospitable and the city of Hanoi is so alive and beautiful -- I cannot wait to go exploring!

I will be based here in Hanoi, the capital city, for the next three weeks as I complete my training at the Vietnam VSO office. We went to visit the Vietnam museum this afternoon which was a very neat and fascinating history lesson and are going to dinner with other VSO volunteers based in Hanoi this evening.

Before are a few photos I have taken so far:

I will post more soon!
