Good Evening Vietnam


Have you ever watched 'Snakes on a plane'? Well - the flight from Japan to Saigon was certainly like it. Pitch black outside and very heavy turbulences for the almost 7 hours. 4 people in business class. I felt like on a private jet. The other people are working for Nike and Intel. They were making fun of Vietnam and how business is so cheap there. I didn't like that - but the truth of the matter is that western companies move into Vietnam because of the cheap labor. Touching down was a different experience. No flashy neon signs or bright lights. Most of the cars on the streets have only one light, hence - motorbikes.... Jason, his sister, Eric and Nicky were picking me up. First stop - street kitchen. Well - not the one we know from Redondo Beach - finally the real one.

Off to bed now.
