Yasshhh this is my first morning in Vietnam,
feel like I am in Bali with its hot weather. Factually, it is hotter than my
expectation that is for about 34 degrees Celsius at the afternoon. My first
impression about Vietnam is the hot weather and the crowded traffic which is
exactly different from my hometown, Bali. Crowded traffic I mean here is not
only about the number of vehicles on the road, but it is more about how the
driver drove on the road with a horn that kept ringing which made the road
become very crowded. I can only sigh and stroke my chest to see how the ride a
motorcycle.:)) At last, I feel that this city is very hot and crowded and i
should always wear my mask to cover my face from unwanted pollution, that's it.
In this day, I also had a culinary
tour with Mr. Hin and 7 friends of mine. We got lunch in one of the “supermarket”
in the campus to taste some foods. “Supermarket” in this country means a restaurant
in Indonesia, means that we have different meanings of a place for eating. LOL.
Okay, btw in this supermarket we were given menus in Vietnamese language in
which my friends and I really don’t understand at all. So, we just trust Mr. Hin
to order some food for us. Before the main course come, we were given cup of rice,
banana, and traditional tea from Vietnam. Yeay, our order had come and we were
like saying “WHAT??” in our mind, it was beef and carrot, cabbage and chicken,
and the taste that I hardly should say were not too good. It was not suitable with
my taste of tongue. FYI, the taste of some foods in Vietnam are salty, and the
rest are tasteless. Nothing is suitable with my taste, but I try to adapt with
all of the foods for my life in a month in Vietnam. Fortunately, I still can
receive many taste of the dessert here and some traditional snacks sold. I
cannot say the name of the food because those have Vietnamese name. One thing that I really don’t understand
in this city, that all Vietnamese have big portion of eating, they eat a lot of
rice more than me, but they have skinny body and I almost don’t find fat person
but me, hmm.
Here I also give some pictures of
food that I ever eat;
