The Vietnamese Narrative with Nhan Phan
The Vietnamese Narrative: A Collection of Photographs is available here! https://issuu.com/nhan.phan/docs/viet_narrative_photobook. Follow me as I travel around Vietnam to record stories of historical relics in Vietnamese history and discover how they contributed to the Vietnamese narrative as well as what they reveal about the nature of change within the country. The stories of the past that those relics can offer can tell us a great deal about how far the Vietnamese story had evolved after the war. Join me to discover a heritage-rich side of Vietnam that’s not commonly discovered to both locals and tourists alike.

Episode 10
On my third day in Sapa, I decided to take a walk around Ta Phin village to take in the scenery in the area. A side road extends off the boulevard, which leads into the village and points towards Suoi Ho, an adjacent town. I decided to walk down that path and see where it leads. Walking past a traditional Dao house, I met two Dao women that were walking in the same direction as I was. During our three-hour walk to Suoi Ho, they provided me with insight into what tribal village culture in the highlands of Sapa really is like. This episode will touch on the living conditions within the highland region, farming for sustenance, childbirth, education, and juvenile marriage.
