Goodbye Vietnam.
Goodbye to countless exposed wires hanging above my head. Goodbye to hungry handicapped kids begging for money. Goodbye to the old lady who tried to sell me a necklace for 2 bucks even after i rejected her for 20 times. Goodbye to millions of motorbikes ravaging through open spaces and staring up the coach i'm in with earnest and awe. Goodbye to the sudden generous rain water that poured on me like deserving punishment. Goodbye to the very skinny boy who returned me the mangosteen that i generously wanted to give him after he smiled at me. Goodbye to the stench of cute dead dogs on the streets. Goodbye to learning about harshness of poverty. Goodbye to that stupid and lousy girl who was once full of complaints and whines.
Vietnam made me realise i take way too many things for granted. and i have no intentions of returning to that sad place ever again.
