Vietnamese Chronicle. A Brief Report from a Distant Part of the World

This article is about Vietnam, a place I wanted to visit since my childhood. Forty years ago, I took the road and started to struggle for the accomplishment of my geographical dreams. Simply by coincidence, in 1980, I headed for Argentina, whose name commences with the first letter of our alphabet; my second international trip happened to be a “B” one, as I decided to make for Bolivia in 1982; after four decades travelling around the world and without having found any place to call “home” yet, Vietnam (a “V” country) was visited by me in 2020.The name New Zeeland is on the top of my current list and has a capital “Z” within it; does that mean that I am destined to finally settle down somewhere in the next few years?
