'Forget What You Remember And Remember What You Forgot': A Different View Of Vietnam

[T]he sun rises just like any other place. And you remember what first brought you to this intoxicating country.

A people who embrace capitalism over communism. A beauty of a country and its people strewn throughout the world that is now within me.
