If you come back Saigon again
Please sent my missed love to the moon, the stars, the forests.
Saigon where I was born in the warmth hands of my mom, 
there were the rivers, the huge land of rices, the deers, 
the lovers walked under sky of the nature’s lovely way.
I love Saigon of the romantic afternoons, 
the best friends waked me up the marvelous souvenirs
and the rains were never ending.

A good friend of mine is on a short trip to build homes in the province of Quang Nam, one of the poorest regions of Vietnam. She’s also a pretty badass photographer. For one week, February 24 to March 4, Nadia will work with Vietnamese families to build simple, decent shelters for them and their neighbors.

I had the pleasure of chipping in a little for her fundraising effort. And I can’t wait to see what beautiful portraits and scenery she’ll capture while she’s exploring Central Vietnam!
