The Vietnamese like to eat fast, walk slow and laugh at everything.

I travel for people. To learn, love and listen. My mentor—the fabulous Vietnamese guide, father, husband, philanthropist and friend, Anh—once said to me, "The Vietnamese like to eat fast, walk slow and laugh at everything." This simple phrase says much and has many layers behind it.
