Hello I am from Vietnam and I am here to promote Vietnamese cultural identity

• 14 March 2025 , Saigon, Vietnam •
It’s been an hour since I have been sitting at the bench at the Nguyen Hue Street , facing the bright displays of ads on the skyscrapers, when a bubble flies past almost touching my nose while I momentarily look at my screen, changing my focus to a kid, running zig zag on the walkway firing guns of bubbles at people, making them pay attention to the small joys of life.
The north-bound breeze from the Saigon River, makes it a pleasant evening to sit and listen to music while the city keeps moving. I am joined by two men from their early sixties, who are looking at the life, with a sense of pride, peace and disbelief, and a fee policemen embracing the vibe, occasionally looking the top of the skyline, sometimes at the kids playing, sometimes at the couples clicking pictures, sometimes at groups pulling their friends’ legs, while making sure they do their job.
Saigon, and all of Vietnam is a testament of how you don’t give up for what defines you. The kids now are firing the guns directly at me, I have got to go, the bubbles have ambushed me.-
