A Day in Rural Vietnam With My Family

Today, I’m leaving Hanoi to visit my family in rural Vietnam. It’s been two months since I last went home, and this time, my sister is coming with me. We’re returning for our maternal grandfather’s annual remembrance day—a time for our relatives to gather, prepare offerings, and share a meal together. Before dinner, there’s time to wander past the rice fields, visit my grandmother and her older sister, and play with the children. After spending so much of my everyday life alone in the city, it feels lovely to be surrounded by family again. I hope this vlog gives you a little glimpse of the place where I grew up and the traditions my family still keeps. Thank you for coming along with me on this journey. ❤️ If you’d like to support my channel, you can buy me a coffee here ☕ https://ko-fi.com/thulifeinvietnam Please take a moment to like and subscribe.
