I asked my aunt to teach me sewing

Yesterday I started a "sewing masterclass" at my aunt's. Aunt Hòa is the oldest sister in my mom's family and the one everybody turns to for clothing repair.

Why I start a blog in 2025

It's a rainy cold Tuesday in Hanoi and I don't have to go anywhere. How lucky I am compared with most Asians, working over 8 hours per day from Monday to Saturday in a cramped office. 

I've been a freelance tour guide for half a year. My rate is high as I speak Italian and very few Vietnamese people speak it. Several tours a month bring me sufficient income. Yet, some part of me yearns for a change.

So I created this blog.
