This is my first post of pictures from when I went to Vietnam in 2018. I have to say that this was one of my favorite countries that I have ever been to and it is a place that I would genuinely love to visit again.

I really like this photo as it was my first time ever one a motorcycle. In case you are not aware, Grab is a ride-sharing service. The first thing that I really noticed was how open and connected to the world you feel when traveling by motorcycle.

I absolutely loved traveling this way. Even though it has been years, I have still think about it from time to time. With that being said, I do not think I will ever get one myself due to safety concerns and the fact that the city I currently live in just means sitting in traffic, so I'll stick to my car for the time being.

I will admit that my adrenaline was pumping after the first few rides.

1963: #SouthVietnam

"The #PentagonPapers, chock full of damning revelations about America’s war in #Vietnam, caused a sensation when The New York Times published them in 1971. One revelation was that the CIA had funded and encouraged the 1963 #coup against, and #assassination of, the president of South Vietnam, #NgoDinhDiem.

"By 1963, the United States had sent thousands of U.S. soldiers to Vietnam to fight the northern communist government led by President #HoChiMinh. The U.S. initially supported Diem because he was fighting the north. However, Diem’s persecution of Buddhists made him an unpopular ruler, leading the Kennedy administration to doubt Diem’s ability to win the war. The coup and Diem’s assassination took place in early November 1963, just a few weeks before Kennedy’s assassination."
