Chớ thấy sóng cả mà ngã tay chèo

"Tôi có rất nhiều kỉ niệm với biển, từ những kỉ niệm tuổi ấu thơ cùng bạn bè đi tắm biển bơi ra tận núi xa để khám phá hang động rồi tối mịt phải nhờ đò ngư dân đưa về. Lớn lên tôi được trải nghiệm những hải trình đưa khách nước ngoài đi thăm quan Vịnh và chèo thuyền kayak. Có những hôm tàu bị hỏng không thể đón đoàn theo kế hoạch, khoảng chiều tối tôi lại chèo vào làng chài và được ngưu dân giúp đỡ. Những kỉ niệm trên đều tạo dấu ấn rất mạnh với tôi về những khung cảnh hùng vĩ của biển cả quê hương và tấm chân tình của những con người ngư dân sống trên biển" - Nguyễn Hoàng Anh - Giám đốc điều hành - CLB Du Thuyền Việt - Vietyatch Club

Life is Magnifique in Hanoi

Not too long ago I was in my 20-something crisis. I knew I was. I saw negative sides of things that I encountered on a daily basis with the highest level of disappointment I can get... I found nothing interesting in anything or anybody. That sounded so bad wasn't that? I walked along the rainy [...]

Ma Maison Saigon

After almost a year of following all the tweets, I finally made it to the Ma Maison Boutique Hotel Saigon last year on a business - leisure trip (November 2014). By previously knowing that the hotel address will not be easy to find, I did not get freaked out when the taxi driver didn't even [...]

Black in Black

So I am back in black now. This is how I would describe my current employment status - I am back into the hotel industry with mixed feelings. The good news is that I am now in a position that I definitely wanted to have but a few years back. So I may say that [...]
