I feel fortunate that I am living in a peaceful village in southern Viet Nam. The scenery here is
beautiful and picturesque with vast fields stretching long distances. The houses are surrounded by
green trees. There are lakes, ponds, and canals here and there. The air is fresh and cool. Life here
seems to move more slowly than in cities. The people work very hard. They grow
vegetables, cultivate rice, and raise cattle. At harvest time, they use combine harvesters to harvest
their crops. Many families live by growing fruit trees in the orchards. Others live by fishing in lakes,
ponds, and canals. Life in the village is very comfortable for children. They play traditional games.
Sometimes they help their parents pick fruit and herd cattle. People in my village know each other
well. They are friendly and hospitable. They often meet each other in the evening, eating fruit,
playing chess, singing folk songs, and chatting about everyday activities.
