Out of conservative loop...

Two weeks ago, I joined a wedding party of Mr. Thai – a teammate of mine. At the restaurant, I have opportunities to meet many talent former PRDCV engineers, especially Mr.Dao. He is a 31-year-old Ph.D in image processing, just came back to Vietnam from Korea. To talk and to hear what he shared during the party, I was impressed by his working experience and views on IT jobs. That is the reason why I made a short talk to my teammates two days later, and now I writing about those key points. #1.

This topic is about my first trip to HCM (a.k.a. Sai Gon), which is the biggest city of Vietnam. Last year, me and couple of my best friends had a good opportunity to visit SG together. You know, after graduation, we scattered all over the country to pursuit our dreaming lives.

HCM is located in the Southern of Vietnam, which is two-hour flight from Hanoi. It has accquired reputations for its gentle people and active living rhythm.
