If you asked me “Why do you like travel?”, I could answer that “ I want to take a rest , relax and get rid of troubles” before and I don’t want to come back to my real life.
It’s too tired.
But I had a change of heart after my trip to Ha Giang.
Ha Giang is a poor province with minority groups in the north of Vietnam.
There are many children with the age of about 12, who don’t go to school.
They have to work in farm, so as to help parents and they are skinny and slovenly, but when I look at them, I always see the happiness on their face.
I drove up the northernmost of the country by motorbike, more and more I saw, the mountains is very imposing.
But that is why the life is so difficult here.
I lived with them 2 days and 1 night in there and I realized that the happiness is very simple.
Their lives don’t have material wealth; position in society… but it has their way to enjoy life.
Now, I slow down and enjoy life.
I often go to visit remote areas with my friend by motorbike; take those photos of natural, enjoy local cuisine and learn about their culture.
