The World That She Lives In
I like the idea of open ended questions. Those questions that seek for answers with more details, information and thoughts. In my opinion, the answers given by a person who answers an open ended question can tell a lot about who they are. I am just no longer satisfied with survey and other yes or no contexts. Life is much more complicated than that.
It's just fastinating sometimes that we encounter unexpected things in life: unexpected people, unexpected gifts, unexpected events. I've caught myself in the middle of all the happenings in life - for most things that have been falling together just how I wanted them to be and there are things that are not. I went to the office today and started working on my ongoing projects. Half a day went by, and after just a few emails being sent and a couple of tense conversations I had at work, just like a blink of an eye, I got a phone call in the middle of the day:
The first two months of 2023 have been nothing short of a roller-coaster, but I've been enjoying the ride. thanks to having lots of support from everyone around me.

Cô đã luôn nhớ Sài Gòn của cô mỗi khi mai vàng nở, khi khu phố chợ trở nên đông đúc, nhộn nhịp và những đứa trẻ chỉ đợi đến ngày Tết để được mặc chiếc áo mới và nhận lì xì.
To me, life is a series of events, and it is an art of progress. We all want to be more successful on our own terms, this is why we have been keeping score so that we can achieve our own goals, whether it is about money making, obtaining an education, or finding the love of our lives.
After more than 10 years of work experiences in hospitality, I know I have not seen enough, but I often see myself stop expecting the unexpected. What do I expect? Not much, but a hotel that could give me a range of emotions. Once someone said this to me while referring to the project that I was chosen to work on: “You don’t have to try to be the best, you just need to be unique”.
The Art Journey has also been fascinating. I've been wondering how creative Art can get with his travel contents, but it seems to me he never really ran out of creativity. This guy has his genuine interest in learning new languages and culture, he can sing almost any song in any language. Here are some of photos taken from Art's Journey in Ho Chi Minh City.
It's been a while since my last post on this group. I have been extremely busy, but that might as well need to stop. No matter what happens in life, I am so blessed to know that my life is given many choices in life. It's a choice of life to be a full-time hotelier, [...]
The decision of whether or not to share food with another people is a choice, but not wanting to share the food that you're eating with other people is something that I was born with.
