In addition to her duties as a guide, Thuy also recommended, and purchased for us, a couple of books that we read during our stay in Viet Nam. The books explained the modern day culture and the some of the issues currently faced by the country and it's people. It provided a good introduction for much of what we were to see during the rest of the trip.
The My Thuan bridge, a large and recently opened suspension bridge, fascinated Thuy and one of her goals was to walk over it. We accompanied her on her walk over the bridge and got some great picturesof the surrounding countryside.
Should you plan to travel in southern Viet Nam and would like a guide, we highly recommend Thuy. Contact me for her e-mail address.
