Hello Hiver,
I'm Hue and I'm 28 years old. I grew up in a small countryside in Central Vietnam, and over the years, I've had the opportunity to travel all over the country from the South to the North, my partner is a backpack or sometimes, having some friends with me. On every journey, I often stop at places I like for a few days.
I don't take a lot of photos, because I like to look through the prism of my eyes and feel it with my heart. Later someone told me that, emotions are things that only come once, so if you can keep them through photos or movies, then review them to make sure the memories are still visible.
However, I was not an adventurous person before and liked to explore like that.
I am introverted and love to be quiet, after my shift I often stop by the familiar coffee shop just to read a book or write a blog. Somewhere in my mind, I'm always trying to build a barrier between myself and everyone around me, because this world is sometimes too noisy and hectic for me.
Until once, my best friend insisted that I participate in a challenging program of young people in Da Nang, after being persuaded for a long time, I also agreed to participate. For two consecutive days, we were divided by team to complete the quizzes, challenges, or games of the program.
We don't use phones or tech items during that time. And the area we moved is mainly Son Tra, Ngu Hanh Son, Hai Van...are all-mountain forests, we are like returning to the previous period of our grandparents. Perhaps it was because of these things that made people more intimate and open to each other. When night came, people lit a fire and sat in circles around.
People introduced themselves and shared a few things about themselves. That night was a real milestone in my life and my direction.
They come from the North to the South because of a chance to meet in this land of Da Nang, everyone has a different situation, a different job.
But they're all the same in their enthusiasm and passion for what they're doing. They were and will be birds flying against the wind to follow their mission and their dreams.
I admire that youth and energy. I came back and thought a lot about my life, I was passionate about numbers, so I didn't hesitate to apply to study accounting. After all these years of work, there's pressure, there's fun, but I always feel like something is missing.
Perhaps because I work in a dry environment, and I have little travel or experience myself, I give birth to boredom. Since then, I changed, instead of coming back to my home at the weekend or going to the coffee shop to read books or meet friends, I took the bus to the near provinces, then to Dalat, Central Highlands, then went away gradually.
The more I walked, the more I realized that this world was beautiful and big, outside was a whole sky full of interesting things. Every region I go through, every person I've met, is a meaningful lesson that if I just read in a book or sit still, I can't take it for granted.
From near to far, I book tickets to more distant places.
Everywhere I went, I listened to the locals tell some interesting stories about the land. Thanks to that, I know more friends from the South to the North, we often share our memories or experiences with each other through each land. My journey kept going on, but that didn't mean I'd lost my own silence.
At times when there's time, instead of just going to the coffee shop you're used to.
I go to experience and explore bars with spaces close to nature, unique design, and style. It's one of the ways I regain my energy and start my day more alive.
Thank you @Trangbaby for bringing me to Hive – a great place to share interesting experiences together. This must be a new journey for me, hoping to get to know more friends and learn more new things.
I hope you enjoyed my post, have a lovely day.
