Away From the City and Through the River of Mekong Delta

Vietnam, I think, is very underrated. I remember a conversation with a Filipino friend who migrated there a little over a year ago. She was going on an on about the places to see and the things you can do there. Fast forward a few months, I caught myself in awe of the beauty of Vietnam. I spent most of my time in Ho Chi Minh City, trying to immerse myself in the culture and the fast-paced lifestyle of the locals.

For a day, we went to My Tho, Ben Tre and Mekong Delta – one of the famous tourist destinations of HCM.
