Hey, we are An Thanh, Linh Giang, and Kieu Trang. In return for your impressive writing, we are doing the same format with what we See - Think - Wonder about Vietnam. Hopefully this will help you to know more about our lives.

SEE: There are many things that can make you surprise when you visit Vietnam. Specifically, there are 3 things which I believe is the most interesting in my country.

Street food: We have a rather diversed cuisine. You could find almost anything at the 36 ancient street, actually; and the price is reasonable, which was due to the intentional lack of ingrediences or the addition of chemical (so that the food would look appealing and bring great profit). Although not all seller does this, we still always have to be on our guard whenever we choose a food-shop to eat.

Traffic: It is chaotic and frustrating, especially during rush hours. The streets are crowded with people on their motorbikes to or from work, yet the traffic looks slow, chaos but somehow very regulated. Vietnamese citizens are more careful on the road now than they did in the past, however there are still people who do not obey the law, causing the traffic to be more dangerous.

Market: It is the antiilliteracy and most common way of trading in Vietnam. Goods at the market consist mostly of fresh vegetable, fruits, fish and meat, and they should be sold within a day so as to maintain the freshness  of the food. In the capital - Hanoi, market is the ideal place for farmers to sell their goods.

THINK: There are many problems in Vietnam that have been increasing recently but we believe that the main reason behind these issues is that people are living a selfish lifestyle. They are only concerned about their own benefits, busy living their own life and ignore other’s. It is shown in our daily life, as you have stated, when people use their smartphones instead of talking to each other, or the aforementioned seller's purpose of gaining profit by adding chemical that is not good for the customer.

WONDER: Here are some of the question that we would like to ask you:

What do American students think about Asian lifestyles and cultures, especially Vietnamese?

Have you ever considered visiting Vietnam?
What have the American citizens/government done to solve this kind of problem (selfish lifestyle) in your country? Do you have any idea to stop it?

If you have any other questions that you would like to ask, just email us.
