Amazed by the dedication of the older generation of Vietnamese to traditional crafts that are the work of a lifetime. As our guide said, “a third world country does not have the luxury of looking back, only forward” - which means these beautiful artisan techniques are dying out.

Some kind of bracket fungus was climbing this ancient ficus tree in Hoi An’s old town

Durian - yes or no? I’ve been told this controversial fruit tastes like vanilla custard mixed with garbage…and worse. It’s ubiquitous here in Vietnam and I’m wondering whether to take the plunge. Have you tried it?

The markets in Vietnam are
bursting with the local bounty, including these tiny sea snails that are simmered with lemongrass and chile before being plucked out with a special tool.
Currently in Vietnam for a month, living at the edge of a traditional herb farm. Spotted what looked like our wood nettles - these are West Indian nettles (Laportea aestuans) 💚
